DESIGN. 

Leland  University  was  founded  in  1870  for  the  higher  ed- 
ucation of  such  men  and  women  as  desired  to  fit  themselves 
for  Christian  citizenship,  either  as  ministers,  teachers  or 
tradesmen.  It  is  open  to  all  persons  who  are  fitted  to  enjoy 
its  advantages,  without  distinction  of  race,  color,  or  reli- 
gious opinions.  The  University  owes  its  existence  to  the  late 
Holbrook  Chamberlain,  Esq.,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y.,  who 
erected  the  buildings,  assisted  in  its  management,  and  at 
his  death  left  to  it  the  bulk  of  his  property,  about  $too,ooo,  as 
an  endowment  fund,  the  interest  of  which  goes  to  the  pay- 
ment of  teachers. 

LOCATION. 

The  University  is  situated  on  St.  Charles  avenue,  between 
Audubon  Place  and  Audubon  street,  nearly  opposite  Audu- 
bon Park.  No  more  beautiful  or  healthful  location  could 
be  found  in  New  Orleans,  while  its  retirement  from  the 
crowded  part  of  the  city  renders  it  peculiarly  adapted  to 
study. 

University  Hall  is  of  brick,  100  by  80  feet,  three  stories 
above  the  basement.  Here  are  the  chapel,  recitation-rooms, 
library,  museum,  orifices  and  rooms  for  the  president,  profes- 
sors and  male  students,  besides  accommodations  in  the 
basement  for  industrial  shops,  printing-offices,  etc. 

Chamberlain  Hall  is  also  of  brick,  three  stories  high, 
100  by  50  feet,  in  which  are  the  rooms  of  the  preceptress 
and  lady  teachers  and  the  young  lady  pupils;  also  music- 
rooms,  boarding,  laundry,  and  industrial  rooms  for  the  girls. 
The  grounds  comprise  four  entire  squares,  or  ten  acres. 

The  University  has  a  library  and  reading-room,  which  is 
supplied  with  the  leading  journals  and  periodicals  of  the 
day. 

There  is  a  Literary  Society,  the  "Philomathean,"  com- 
posed of  young  men  and  young  women,  which  holds  weekly 
meetings  for  mutual  improvement. 

The  students  also  constitute  a  recognized  branch  of  the 
International  Young  Men's  Christian  Association  and 
of  the  National  Society  of  Christian  Endeavor. 

REaUIREMENTS  FOR  ADMISSION. 

All  applicants  for  admission  to  the  normal  course  are  ex- 
pected to  pass  examination  in  the  common  English  branches, 
viz.:  Arithmetic,  Grammar,  Geography  and  United  States 
History,  unless  they  are  graduates  from  one  of  our  auxiliary 
schools. 


LELAND  UNIVERSITY,  i897-98.  33

they  are  regarded  as  temporary,  and  none  can  be  admitted

tions in  Arithmetic  and  equivalent  work  in  other  English 
branches.

luw-cases,  and  the  necessary  toilet  articles,  such  as  towels, 
brushes,  etc.  Young  ladies  should  also  be  provided  with 
waterproofs,  rubber  shoes,  and  umbrellas.  They  should 
also  bring  with  them  each,  one  or  two  dark  underskirts  for

AUXILIARY  SCHOOLS. 

In  order  to  encourage  the  organization  of  local  schools 
for  primary  and  grammar  grade  work,  the  University  has 
made  provision  for  taking  under  its  charge  auxiliary  schools 
in  the  vicinity  of  New  Orleans  upon  the  following  con- 
ditions: 

1.  That  a  property  fairly  valued  at  $2,000  shall  be  provided 
by  the  trustees  and  kept  in  repair  by  them,  with  taxes,  in- 
surance, and  incidental  expenses  paid. 

2.  That  the  tuitions,  to  the  amount  of  at  least  $1  per  month 
for  each  pupil,  be  reported  and  paid  to  the  University  be- 
fore the  5th  of  each  school  month. 

3.  That  the  course  of  study  prepared  by  the  Leland 
Faculty  for  use  in  preparatory  schools  (or  "Leland  Acad- 
emies") be  adopted  by  the  school  with  such  text-books  as 
are  from  time  to  time  prescribed. 

4.  The  teachers  of  the  school  are  to  be  appointed  by  us 
in   consultation  with   the  trustees   of  the  school,  and    their

names  will  appear  as  members  of  our  faculty.  Their  sala- 
ries are  to  be  paid  by  the  University  on  terms  which  may  be 
agreed  upon,  to  be  adjusted  with  reference  to  the  apparent 
needs  and  probable  income  of  the  school. 

5.  Graduates  of  the  school  will  be  received  into  the  reg- 
ular normal  classes  of  the  University  without  examination. 
The  best  scholar  in  each  graduating  class  will  receive  from 
the  University  a  prize  of  $1  per  month  deducted  from  his 
first  term  bill,  and  the  second  best  scholar  will  receive  a 
prize  of  50  cents  per  month  in  the  same  way. 

HOWE  INSTITUTE. 

The  first  auxiliary  of  Leland  University  was  established 
at  New  Iberia,  La.,  in  1890,  for  preparatory  and  grammar 
school  work. 

The  sons  of  Peter  Howe,  of  Wenona,  111.,  out  of  filial  re- 
gard for  the  wishes  of  their  revered  father,  have  placed  that 
beautiful  property  under  the  control  and  management  of 
the  President  of  the  University. 

At  the  head  of  this  institution  has  been  placed  Prof. 
Jonas  Henderson,  A.  M.,  who  filled  the  chair  of  History  and 
Mathematics  in  the  University  for  nine  years.  His  ability 
as  a  teacher  is  well  and  widely  known.  Mrs.  Virginia  L. 
Robinson,  a  graduate  of  Leland  University,  is  Matron  of  the 
boarding  department. 

LELAND    ACADEMY. 

In  November,  1893,  the  Trustees  of  the  Slater  High 
School  at  Donaldsonville,  La.,  made  application  for  ac- 
ceptance as  an  auxiliary  school,  under  the  name  of  Leland 
Academy,  and  were  accepted  by  our  Board. 

The  Principal,  Prof.  S.  S.  Gray,  is  a  graduate  of  our 
normal  department,  and  the  school  gives  promise  of  success 
and  usefulness.  The  Academy  has  the  services  of  Miss 
Octavie  Genizena  as  directress  of  instrumental  music,  and  Dr. 
John  H.  Lowery  as  lecturer  in  Physiology  and  Hygiene. 

NEW  AUXILIARIES. 

During  the  present  year,  the  Industrial  High  School  at 
Monroe,  La.,  and  the  Normal  Institute  at  Ruston,  La.,  have 
applied  and  been  accepted  as  Leland  Academies.  Both 
have  had  a  prosperous  year,  and  give  promise  of  permanent 
success.  The  school  at  Ruston  has  been  afflicted  by  the  re- 
cent   sudden    death    of    Prof.    William    Allen,    A.    B.,    who 


LELAND  UNIVERSITY,  1897-98.  jy 

graduated  from  the  University  at  our  last  commencement. 
He  was  a  young  man  of  great  promise,  and  his  loss  will  be 
deeply  felt  by  the  alumni  of  Leland. 

OTHER  ACADEMICAL,   SCHOOLS. 

Other  schools  of  similar  grade  in  the  State  whose  princi- 
pals are  graduates  of  Leland  University,  report  the  follow- 
ing enrollment  for  the  year: 

Alexandria Warner  R.  Wright,  Principal 192 

Baton   Rouge James  L.  Crossly,  A.  B.,  Principal. ..128 

Bunkie Henry  B.  Banks,  Principal 74 

Cheneyville Charles  S.  Collins,  A.  B.,  Principal...  158 

Gibsland Oliver  L.  Coleman,  A.  M.,  Principal. ..200 

Shreveport William  Hicks,  Principal 163 

915 
The  sum  of  their  enrollment  added  to  518,  the  number  in 
our  Auxiliary  schools,  gives  us  1,496  as  the  sum  total  of 
pupils  who  are  receiving  this  year  the  eight  months'  course 
of  instruction  which  is  prescribed  for  our  Sub-Normal  de- 
partment.

36  LELAND    UNIVERSITY,    1899-1900. 

MINISTERS'  CLASS. 

A  course  of  instruction  in  Biblical  Theology  and  Pastoral 
Duty  is  provided  at  the  University  for  the  benefit  of  Pastors. 
Advanced  students  in  the  College  who  contemplate  entering 
full  Theological  Course  are  taught  the  elements  of  Hebrew 
and  a  New  Testament  exegesis. 

DESIGN. 

Leland  University  was  founded  in  1870,  for  the  higher  edu- 
cation of  such  men  and  women  as  desire  to  fit  themselves  for 
Christian  citizenship,  either  as  ministers,  teachers  or  trades- 
men. It  is  open  to  all  persons  who  are  fitted  to  enjoy  its  ad- 
vantages, without  distinction  of  race,  color,  or  religious  opin- 
ions. The  University  owes  its  existence  to  the  late  Holbrook 
Chamberlain,  Esq.,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y.,  who  erected  the 
buildings,  assisted  its  management,  and  at  his  death  left  it  the 
bulk  of  his  property,  about  $100,000,  as  an  endowment  fund, 
the  interest  of  which  goes  to  the  payment  of  teachers. 

During  the  summer  of  1899  a  gift  of  $25,000  for  additional 
endowment  was  made  by  Chas,  M.  Pratt,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y. 

LOCATION. 

The  University  is  situated  on  St.  Charles  avenue,  between 
Audubon  Place  and  Audubon  street,  nearly  opposite  Audubon 
Park.  No  more  beautiful  or  healthful  location  could  be  found 
in  New  Orleans,  while  its  retirement  from  the  crowded  part  of 
the  city  renders  it  peculiarly  adapted  to  study. 

University  Hall  is  of  brick,  100  by  80  feet,  three  stories 
above  the  basement.  Here  are  the  chapel,  recitation-rooms, 
library,  museum,  offices  and  rooms  for  the  president,  profes- 
sors and  male  students,  besides  accommodations  in  the  base- 
ment for  industrial  shops,  printing-offices,  etc. 

Chamberlain  Hall  is  also  of  brick,  three  stories  high,  100 
by  50  feet,  in  which  are  the  rooms  of  the  preceptress  and  lady 
teachers  and  the  young  lady  pupils;  also  music-rooms,  board- 
ing, laundry,  and  industrial  rooms  for  the  girls.  The  grounds 
comprise  four  entire  squares,  or  ten  acres. 

The  University  has  a  library  and  reading-room,  which  is 
supplied  with  the  leading  journals  and  periodicals  of   the  day. 


LELAND    UNIVERSITY,    1899-1900.  39 

There  is  a  Literary  Society,  the  "Philomathean,"  com- 
posed of  young  men  and  young  women,  which  holds  weekly 
meetings  for  mutual  improvement. 

The  students  also  constitute  a  recognized  branch  of  the

AUXILIARY  SCHOOLS. 

In  order  to  encourage  the  organization  of  local  schools  for 
primary  and  grammar  grade  work,  the  University  has  made 
provision  for  taking  under  its  charge  auxiliary  schools  in  the 
vicinity  of  New  Orleans  upon  the  following  conditions  : 

1.  That  a  property  fairly  valued  at  $2, 000  shall  be  provided 
by  the  trustees  and  kept  in  repair  by  them,  with  taxes,  in- 
surance, and  incidental  expenses  paid. 

2.  That  the  tuitions,  to  the  amount  of  at  least  $1  per  month 
for  each  pupil,  be  reported  and  paid  to  the  University  before 
the  5th  of  each  school  month. 

3.  That  the  course  of  study  prepared  by  the  Leland  Faculty 


40  LELAND    UNIVERSITY,    1899-1900. 

for  use  in  preparatory  schools  (or  "  Leland  Academies")  be 
adopted  by  the  school,  with  such  text-books  as  are  from  time 
to  time  prescribed. 

4.  The  teachers  of  the  school  are  to  be  appointed  by  us  in 
consultation  with  the  trustees  of  the  school,  and  their  names 
will  appear  as  members  of  our  faculty.  Their  salaries  are 
to  be  paid  by  the  University  on  terms  which  may  be  agreed 
upon,  to  be  adjusted  with  reference  to  the  apparent  needs  and 
probable  income  of  the  school. 

5.  Graduates  of  the  schools  will  be  received  into  the  regular 
normal  classes  of  the  University  without  examination.  The 
best  scholar  in  each  graduating  class  will  receive  from  the 
University  a  prize  of  $1  per  month  deducted  from  his  first 
term  bill,  and  the  second  best  scholar  will  receive  a  prize  of 
c,o  cents  per  month  in  the  same  year. 

HOWE  INSTITUTE. 

The  first  auxiliary  of  Leland  University  was  established  at 
New  Iberia,  La.,  in  1890,  for  preparatory  and  grammar-school 
work. 

The  sons  of  Peter  Howe,  of  Wenona,  111.,  out  of  filial  regard 
for  the  wishes  of  their  revered  father,  have  placed  that  beauti- 
ful property  under  the  control  and  management  of  the  President 
of  the  University. 

At  the  head  of  this  institution  has  been  placed  Prof.  Jonas 
Henderson,  A.  M.,  who  filled  the  chair  of  History  and 
Mathematics  in  the  University  for  nine  years.  His  ability  as 
a  teacher  is  well  and  widely  known.  Mrs.  Rebecca  J.  Hender- 
son, a  normal  graduate  of  Leland  University,  is  matron  of  the 
boarding  department. 

LELAND  ACADEMY. 

In  November,  1893,  the  Trustees  of  the  Slater  High  School 
at  Donaldsonville,  La.,  made  application  for  acceptance  as  an 
auxiliary  school,  under  the  name  of  Leland  Academy,  and 
were  accepted  by  our  Board. 

The  principal,  Prof.  S.  S.  Gray,  is  a  graduate  of  our 
normal,  department,  and  the  school    gives  promise   of    success

and  usefulness.   The  Academy  has  the  services  of  Dr.  John  H. 
Lowery  as  lecturer  in  Physiology  and  Hygiene. 

MONROE  ACADEMY. 

Early  in  1898.  the  Industrial  High  School  at  Monroe,  La., 
was  admitted  to  affiliation  with  us,  having  given  satisfactory 
evidence  of  ability  to  meet  our  prescribed  conditions.  The 
Trustees  have  shown  commendable  'enterprise  in  securing  a 
valuable  property  for  the  school,  and  good  work  is  being  done. 

Professor  Pruitt  is  highly  esteemed  as  an  able  man  and  a 
good  teacher,  and  Mrs.  Pruitt,  of  the  class  of  1898,  was  the 
first  lady  to  receive  the  degree  of  A.B.  from  Leland  University.

MINISTER'S  CLASS. 

A  course  of  instruction  in  Biblical  Theology  and  Pastoral 
Duty  is  provided  at  the  University  for  the  benefit  of  Pastors. 
Advanced  students  in  the  College  who  contemplate  entering 
full  Theological  Course  are  taught  the  elements  of  Hebrew 
and  New  Testament  exegesis.  This  course  will  be  enlarged 
according  to  demand. 

DESIGN. 

Leland  University  was  founded  in  1870,  for  the  higher  edu- 
cation of  such  men  and  women  as  desire  to  fit  themselves  for 
Christian  citizenship,  either  as  ministers,  teachers  or  trades- 
men. It  is  open  to  all  persons  who  are  fitted  to  enjoy  its  ad- 
vantages, without  distinction  of  race,  color,  or  religious  opin- 
ions. The  University  owes  its  existence  to  the  late  Holbrook 
Chamberlain,  Esq.,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y.,  who  erected  the  build- 
ings, assisted  its  management,  and  at  his  death  left  it  the  bulk 
of  his  property,  about  $100,000,  as  an  endowment  fund,  the 
interest  of  which  goes  to  the  payment  of  teachers. 

During  the  summer  of  1899  a  gift  of  $25,000  for  additional 
endowment  was  made  by  Chas.  M,  Pratt,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y. 

LOCATION. 

The  University  is  situated  on  St.  Charles  avenue,  between 
Audubon  Place  and  Audubon  street,  nearly  opposite  Audubon 
Park.  No  more  beautiful  or  healthful  location  could  be  found 
in  New  Orleans,  while  its  retirement  from  the  crowded  part  of 
the  city  renders  it  peculiarly  adapted  to  study. 

University  Hall  is  of  brick,  100  by  80  feet,  three  stories 
above  the  basement.  Here  are  the  chapel,  recitation  rooms, 
library,  museum,  offices  and  rooms  for  the  president,  profes- 
sors and  male  students,  besides  accommodations  in  the  base- 
ment for  industrial  shops,  printing-offices,  etc. 

Chamberlain  Hall  is  also  of  brick,  three  stories  high,  100 
by  50  feet,  in  which  are  the  rooms  of  the  preceptress  and  lady 
teachers  and  the  young  lady  pupils ;  also  music-rooms,  board- 
ing, laundry,  and  industrial  rooms  for  the  girls.  The  grounds 
comprise  four  entire  squares,  or  ten  acres. 


LELAND  UNIVERSITY,  1900-1901.  39 

The  University  has  a  library  and  reading-room,  which  is 
supplied  with  the  leading  journals  and  periodicals  of  the  day. 

There  is  a  Literary  Society,  the  "Philomathean,"  com- 
posed of  young  men  and  young  women, which  holds  weekly 
meetings  for  mutual  improvement. 

The  students  also  constitute  a  recognized  branch  of  the  Na- 
tional Society  of  Christian  Endeavor. 

EXPENSES. 

All  Instruction,  except  in  Instrumental  Music,  is  free. 

Board  per  month   $12.00 

Incidental  Expenses,  for  day  scholars,  per  month 1.00 

Instrumental  Music,  per  month 3.00 

Board  and  Tuition  in  Auxiliaries,  per  month 8.00 

Total  Expenses,  when  paid  in  advance 85.00 

Total  Expenses  in  Auxiliaries 60.00 

All  students  are  required  to  perform  daily  one  hour  of  some 
form  of  manual  labor  under  the  direction  of  a  teacher. 

All  monthly  bills  due  the  University  are  due  in  advance. 
No  deduction  for  less  than  one-half  month. 

Rooms  are  furnished  with  bedstead,  mattress  pillows,  and 
quilts,  chairs,  tables,  washstand,  mirror,  bowl  and  pitcher. 

Students  should  provide  themselves  with  sheets  and  pillow- 
cases, and  the  necessary  toilet  articles,  such  as  towels,  brushes, 
etc.  Young  ladies  should  also  be  provided  with  waterproofs, 
rubber  shoes,  and  umbrellas.  They  should  also  bring  with 
them  each   one  or  two  dark  underskirts  for  every-day  wear. 

AUXILIARY  SCHOOLS. 

In  order  to  encourage  the  organization  of  local  schools  for 
primary  and  grammar  grade  work,  the  University  has  made 
provision  for  taking  under  its  charge  auxiliary  schools  in  tile 
vicinity  of  New  Orleans  upon  the  following  conditions : 

1.  That  a  property  fairly  valued  at  $2,000  shall  be  provided 
by  the  trustees  and  kept  in  repair  by  them,  with  taxes,  in- 
surance, and  incidental  expenses  paid. 

2.  That  the  tuitions,  to  the  amount  of  at  least  $1  per  month 
for  each  pupil,  be  reported  and  paid  to  the  University  before 
the  5th  of  each  school  month. 


40  LELAND   UNIVERSITY,  1900-1901. 

3.  That  the  course  }f  study  prepared  by  the  Leland  Faculty 
for  use  in  preparatory  schools  (or  "Leland  Academies")  be 
adopted  by  the  school,  with  such  text-books  as  are  from  time 
to  time  prescribed. 

4.  The  teachers  of  the  school  are  to  be  appointed  by  us  in 
consultation  with  the  trustees  of  the  school,  and  their  names 
will  appear  as  members  of  our  faculty.  Their  salaries  are 
to  be  paid  by  the  University  on  terms  which  may  be  agreed 
upon,  to  be  adjusted  with  reference  to  the  apparent  needs  and 
probable  income  of  the  school. 

5.  Graduates  of  the  school  will  be  received  into  the  regular 
normal  classes  of  the  University  without  examination.  The 
best  scholar  in  each  graduating  class  will  receive  from  the 
University  a  prize  of  $1  per  month  deducted  from  his  first 
term  bill,  and  the  second  best  scholar  will  receive  a  prize  of 
50  cents  per  month  in  the  same  year. 

HOWE  INSTITUTE. 

The  first  auxiliary  of  Leland  University  was  established  at 
New  Iberia,  La.,  in  1890,  for  preparatory  and  grammar-school 
work. 

The  sons  of  Peter  Howe,  of  Wenona,  111.,  out  of  filial  regard 
for  the  wishes  of  their  revered  father,  have  placed  that  beauti- 
ful property  under  the  control  and  management  of  the  Presi- 
dent of  the  University. 

At  the  head  of  this  institution  has  been  placed  Prof.  Jonas 
Henderson,  A.  M.,  who  filled  the  chair  of  History  and  Math- 
ematics in  the  University  for  nine  years.  His  ability  as  a 
teacher  is  well  and  widely  known.  Mrs.  Rebecca  J.  Hender- 
son, a  normal  graduate  of  Leland  University,  is  matron  of  the 
boarding  department. 

LELAND  ACADEMY. 

In  November,  1893,  the  Trustees  of  the  Slater  High  School 
at  Donaldsonville,  La.,  made  application  for  acceptance  as  an 
auxiliary  school,  under  the  name  of  Leland  Academy,  and 
it  was  accepted  by  our  Board. 


LELAND  UNIVERSITY,  1900-1901.  41 

The  principal.  Prof.  S.  S.  Gray,  is  a  graduate  of  our  nor- 
mal department,  and  the  school  gives  promise  of  success  and 
usefulness. 

MONROE  ACADEMY. 

Early  in  1898,  the  Industrial  High  School  at  Monroe,  La.,

PLAN  AND  PURPOSE  OF  THE  UNIVERSITY. 

Leland  University  was  incorporated  in  1870  under  the 
provisions  of  the  Act  of  the  Legislature  of  Louisiana,  which 
reads  : 

"The  purposes  and  objects  of  this  corporation  are  the 
establishment  and  maintenance  of  one  or  more  Institutions 
of  learning  for  the  education,  under  Christian  auspices,  of 
young  men  and  women,  particularly  for  the  training  of 
preachers  and  teachers,  and  to  receive  donations  of  prop- 
erty for  educational  purposes."  *  *  *  "Inasmuch  as  the 
welfare  of  society,  and  not  pecuniary  gain,  is  the  object  of 
this  corporation,  *  *  *  the  Trustees  shall  not  have 
power  to  encumber  by  mortgage  the  whole  or  any  part  of 
the  property,  nor  to  use  the  principal  of  any  endowment 
funds  for  the  current  expenses  of  its  work/7 

It  is  open  to  all  persons  who  are  fitted  to  enjoy  its  ad- 
vantages, without  distinction  of  race  or  religious  opinions. 

The  University  owes  its  existence  to  the  late  Holbrook 
Chamberlain,  Esq.,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y.,  who  erected  the 
buildings,  assisted  its  management,  and  at  his  death  left  it 
the  bulk  of  his  property,  about  $100,000,  as  an  endowment 
fund,  the  interest  of  which  goes  to  the  payment  of  teachers. 

During  the  summer  of  1899  a  gift  of  $25,000  for  addi- 
tional endowment  was  made  by  Chas.  M.  Pratt,  Esq.,  of 
Brooklyn,  N.  Y. 

LOCATION. 

The  University  is  situated  on  St.  Charles  Avenue,  between 
Audubon  Place  and  Audubon  Street,  nearly  opposite  Audu- 
bon Park.  No  more  beautiful  or  healthful  location  could 
be  found  in  New  Orleans,  while  its  retirement  from  the 
crowded  part  of  the  City  renders  it  peculiarly  adapted  to 
stud  v.

L EL  AND    UNIVERSITY,  1901-1902.  55 

The  Sub-Normal  Course  is  a  thorough  Grammar  School 

Course.  Great  stress  is  placed  throughout  the  student's 
course  upon  a  mastery  of  English  in  speech  and  in  compo- 
sition. 

The  Manual  Training  will  be  thorough  and  practical 
teaching  in  the  general  principles  of  woodworking.  Me- 
chanical Drawing  will  be  a  part  of  the  course.  Until 
the  new  building  is  erected,  the  work  will  be  carried  on  in 
the  shops  of  the  main  building.  Additional  instruction  in 
sewing  will  be  added  for  the  coming  year.  Lectures  on 
Agricultural  Chemistry  and  Farming  will  be  given  in  con- 
nection with  Practical  Gardening. 

The  University  has  a  library  and  reading  room  which  is 
supplied  with  journals  and  periodicals.  Mrs.  E.  C.  Mitchell 
gave  to  the  University  450  volumes  from  the  library  of  the 
late  President,  E.  C.  Mitchell,  D.D. 

There  is  a  Literary  Society,  the  "Philomathean,"  com- 
posed of  young  men  and  young  women,  which  holds  weekly 
meetings  for  mutual  improvement. 

The  students  also  constitute  a  recognized  branch  of  the 
National  Society  of  Christian  Endeavor. 

Special  emphasis  is  made  of  Bible  study,  under  the 
charge  of  the  Faculty.  There  have  been  this  year  volunteer 
classes  for  special  studies  in  Greek  Testament,  Church  His- 
tory, and  an  Instruction  class  for  those  who  teach  in  Sun- 
day School  in  the  city.  The  President  gave  a  course  of 
Lectures  on  the  Ten  Commandments.  The  Principal  and 
Preceptress  of  the  Normal  School  conduct  daily  evening 
chapel   in   their  respective  Halls. 

Mr.  J.  S.  Dickerson,  of  the  "Chicago  Standard,"  offers  a 
prize  for  the  best  essay  in  the  second  year  normal,  for  the 
next  five  years.  The  topic  to  be  chosen  by  the  Professor 
of  English  in  charge.  The  prize  this  year  was  won  by 
Walter  G.  Sneed.     Subject:   '-'Character  Building." 


56  LELAND  UNIVERSITY,  1901-1902. 

GENERAL    RULES. 

It  is  assumed  that  all  who  enter  upon  the  courses  of 
study  do  so  for  the  purpose  of  acquiring  an  education  not 
only  of  the  intellect  but  also  of  character.  The  laws  of 
the  Institution  are  as  few  and  simple  as  the  proper  regula- 
tion of  a  community  of  young  people  will  permit.  These 
laws  must  be  observed  not  only  in  their  letter  but  in  their 
spirit.  The  atmosphere  of  the  Institution  is  not  that  of 
arbitrary  restraint  but  of  reasonable  conformity  to  reason- 
able laws.  The  Institution  does  not  wish  to  place  its  stamp  or 
bestow  its  honors  upon  anyone  who  is  not  willing  to  deport 
himself  as  a  gentleman.  Each  student  is  distinctly  placed 
upon  his  manhood,  and  if  he  abuses  his  privileges  in  con- 
duct, study,  or  work,  after  reasonable  caution,  he  must 
withdraw  from  the  Institution. 

No  student  who  is  deficient  in  rhetorical  or  class-room 
work  in  any  term  shall  be  eligible  to  the  office  of  Man- 
ager or  Director  in  any  student  organization,  or  to  be  a 
member  of  any  exhibiting  organization  or  of  any  con- 
testing athletic  team  during  any  subsequent  term  until 
such  deficiency  is  made  up. 

Only  under  exceptional  circumstances  will  excuses  be 
granted  to  leave  the  Institution  during  term  time.  In 
such  cases  the  examination  in  the  studies  gone  over  by  the 
class  during  a  student's  absence  will  be  specially  searching 
and  a  high  degree  of  attainment  will  be  required.  The 
work  of  the  term  begins  on  the  day  of  opening  and  con- 
tinues uninterruptedly  until  the  last  day  of  the  term. 

Unexcused  absences  from  recitations  count  as  zero  in 
making  up  the  monthly  averages  ;  excused  absences  have  half 
the  effect  in  lowering  a  student's  standing  ;  but  a  student 
may,  at  the  option  of  a  professor,  do  supplementary  work 
to  obviate  the  effect  upon  his  standing  of  excused  absences. 


LELAXD  UNIVERSITY,    1901-1902.  57 

Students  are  required  to  take  up  enough  studies  to  keep 
them  in  the  judgment  of  the  President  sufficiently  employed, 
but  not  to  take  up  more  than  they  can  study  with  profit. 

In  case  a  student  fails  to  be  present  at  the  examination 
of  his  class,  for  any  justifiable  reason,  his  examination  will 
be  held  at  such  time  as  the  Faculty  may  appoint,  but  in  no 
case  is  an  examination  granted  a  student  in  advance  of  the 
time  appointed  for  the  examination  of  the  class. 

If  a  student  has  failed  in  the  studies  of  a  term,  he  will 
not  be  permitted  to  enter  upon  the  studies  of  a  subsequent 
term  until  he  has  passed  in  the  subjects  in  which  he  failed, 
unless  a  postponement  of  examination  to  a  definite  time  is 
granted  by  the  Faculty. 

A  student  who  has  not  completed  his  rhetorical  work  in 
any  term  will  not  be  permitted  to  enter  upon  any  of  the 
work  of  the  succeeding  term  until  such  deficiency  is  made  up. 

The  duties  of  each  day  are  opened  with  religious  services 
which  all  students  are  required  to  attend.  All  residing  on  the 
campus  are  required  to  attend  the  stated  religious  services. 

The  President  of  the  University  will  be  in  his  office  in 
the  Main  Building  at  stated  hours  to  confer  with  students 
who  may  desire  advice  or  assistance. 

All  students  from  a  distance  will  occupy  rooms,  and  board 
in  the  Institution,  except  for  reasons  jointly  satisfactory  to 
the  President  of  the  University  and  the  Principal  and  Pre- 
ceptress of  the  Normal  School. 

No  student  is  allowed  to  leave  the  campus  at  any  time 
without  permission. 

No  person  will  be  dismissed  from  the  Institution  as  in 
good  standing  who  leaves  it  while  under  censure.  Nor 
will  anv  student  be  graduated  who  has  not  discharged  all 
his  pecuniary  obligations  to  the  Institution.

Students  are  held  responsible  for  any  damage  to  their 
rooms  or  furniture,  whether  it  be  done  when  they  are 
present  in  the  room  or  absent  from  it. 

AUXILIARY    SCHOOLS. 

In  order  to  encourage  the  organization  of  local  schools 
for  primary  and  grammar  grade  work,  the  University  has 


LELAND  UNIVERSITY,  1901-1902.  59 

made  provision  for  taking  under  its  charge  auxiliary 
schools  in  the  vicinity  of  New  Orleans  upon  the  following 
conditions  : 

1.  That  a  property  fairly  valued  at  $2,000  shall  be  pro- 
vided by  the  trustees  and  kept  in  repair  by  them,  with 
taxes,  insurance,  and  incidental  expenses  paid. 

2.  That  the  tuitions,  to  the  amount  at  least  of  $1  per 
month  for  each  pupil,  be  reported  and  paid  to  the  Uni- 
versity before  the  5th  of  each  school  month. 

3.  That  the  course  of  study  prepared  by  the  Leland 
Faculty  for  use  in  preparatory  schools  (or  '-Leland  Acad- 
emies") be  adopted  by  the  school,  with  such  text-books  as 
are  from  time  to  time  prescribed. 

4.  The  teachers  of  the  school  are  to  be  appointed  by  the 
President  of  Leland  University  in  consultation  with  the 
trustees  of  the  school,  and  their  names  will  appear  as 
members  of  our  faculty.  Their  salaries  are  to  be  paid  by 
the  University  on  terms  which  may  be  agreed  upon,  to  be 
adjusted  with  reference  to  the  apparent  needs  and  probable 
income  of  the  school. 

5.  Graduates  of  the  school  will  be  received  into  the  reg- 
ular normal  classes  of  the  University  without  examination. 
The  best  scholar  in  each  graduating  class  will  receive  from 
the  University  a  prize  of  $1  per  month  deducted  from  his 
first  term  bill,  and  the  second  best  scholar  will  receive  a 
prize  of  50  cents  per  month  in  the  same  year. 

HOWE    INSTITUTE. 

The  first  auxiliary  of  Leland  University  was  established 
at  New  Iberia,  La.,  in  1890,  for  preparatory  and  grammar- 
school  work. 

The  sons  of  Peter  Howe,  of  Wenona,  111.,  out  of  filial 
regard  for  the  wishes  of  their  revered  father,  have  placed 
that  beautiful  property  under  the  control  and  management 
of  the  President  of  the  University. 


60  LELAND    UNIVERSITY,   1901-1902. 

At  the  head  of  this  institution  has  been  placed  Prof. 
Jonas  Henderson,  A.M.,  who  filled  the  chair  of  History 
and  Mathematics  in  the  University  for  nine  years.  His 
ability  as  a  teacher  is  well  and  widely  known.  Mrs. 
Rebecca  J.  Henderson,  a  normal  graduate  of  Leland  Uni- 
versity, is  matron  of  the  boarding  department. 

LELAND    ACADEMY. 

In  November,  1892,  the  Trustees  of  the  Slater  High 
School  at  Donaldsonville,  La.,  made  application  for  accept- 
ance as  an  auxiliary  school,  under  the  name  of  Leland 
Academy,  and  it  was  accepted  by  our  Board. 

MONROE   ACADEMY. 

Early  in  1898,  the  Industrial  High  School  at  Monroe, 
La.,  was  admitted  to  affiliation  with  us,  having  given  satis- 
factory evidence  of  ability  to  meet  our  prescribed  condi- 
tions. The  Trustees  have  shown  commendable  enterprise 
in  securing  a  valuable  property  for  the  school,  and  good 
work  is  being  done. 

Professor  Pruitt  is  highly  esteemed  as  an  able  man 
and  a  good  teacher,  and  Mrs.  Pruitt,  of  the  class  of  1898, 
was  the  first  lady  to  receive  the  degree  of  A.  B.  from 
Leland  University. 

RUSTON    INSTITUTE. 

In  1900  the  Ruston  Normal  and  Academic  Institute,  at 
Ruston,  La.,  was  accepted  as  an  auxiliary  school,  according 
to  the  conditions  prescribed  in  the  catalogue.  Its  prin- 
cipal, Professor  Powell,  is  a  graduate  of  the  College 
Department  of  the  University  of  the  class  of  1899.  He  is 
an  excellent  scholar,  an  able  and  efficient  teacher,  and  is 
pushing  the  work  of  the  school  with  energy  and  success. 


LELAXD  UNIVERSITY,  1901-1902.  61 

OPELOUSAS  HIGH  SCHOOL. 
In  February,  1902,  the  Opelousas  High  School,  under 
the  principalship  of  Elias  J.  Simms,  graduate  of  the 
Normal  Department,  formally  made  application  to  become 
auxiliary  to  the  University.  The  school  is  a  new  one  and 
bids  fair  to  be  useful. 

CENTRAL    LOUISIANA   ACADEMY. 

This  well-known  school  has  for  some  years  been  under 
the  charge  of  Professor  W.  R.  Wright,  graduate  of  the 
Normal  Department.  The  school  has  a  large  influence. 
It  became  auxiliary  in  1902. 

CHENEYVILLE   ACADEMY. 

The  Academy  at  Cheneyville  for  some  time  has  been 
sending  well  prepared  students  to  the  University.  This 
year,  under  the  principalship  of  William  G.  Thomas, 
graduate  of  the  Normal  Department,  it  became  auxiliary 
according  to  the  prescribed  conditions. 

OTHER   ACADEMICAL   SCHOOLS. 

Other  schools  of  similar  grade  in  the  State,  whose  prin- 
cipals are  graduates  of  the  Normal  Department  of  the 
University,  report  the    following  enrollment    for   the  year  :

PLAN  AND  PURPOSE  OF  THE  UNIVERSITY. 

Leland  University  was  incorporated  in  1870  under  the 
provisions  of  the  Act  of  the  Legislature  of  Louisiana,  which 
reads  : 

"The  purposes  and  objects  of  this  corporation  are  the 
establishment  and  maintenance  of  one  or  more  Institutions 
of  learning  for  the  education,  under  Christian  auspices,  of 
young  men  and  women,  particularly  for  the  training  of 
preachers  and  teachers,  and  to  receive  donations  of  prop- 
erty for  educational  purposes."  *  *  *  "Inasmuch  as  the 
welfare  of  society,  and  not  pecuniary  gain,  is  the  object  of 
this  corporation,  *  *  *  the  Trustees  shall  not  have 
power  to  encumber  by  mortgage  the  whole  or  any  part  of 
the  property,  nor  to  use  the  principal  of  any  endowment 
funds  for  the  current  expenses  of  its  work." 

It  is  open  to  all  persons  who  are  fitted  to  enjoy  its  ad- 
vantages, without  distinction  of  race  or  religious  opinions. 

The  University  owes  its  existence  to  the  late  Holbrook 
Chamberlain,  Esq.,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y.,  who  purchased  the 
ground  in  1869,  erected  the  buildings,  assisted  its  manage- 
ment, and  at  his  death  left  the  bulk  of  his  property,  about 
$100,000,  as  an  endowment  fund,  the  interest  of  which  goes 
to  the  payment  of  teachers. 

During  the  summer  of  1899  a  gift  of  $25,000  for  addi- 
tional endowment  was  made  by  Chas.  M.  Pratt,  Esq.,  of 
Brooklyn,  N.  Y. 

LOCATION. 

The  University  is  situated  on  St.  Charles  Avenue,  between 
Audubon  Place  and  Audubon  Street,  nearly  opposite  Audu- 
bon Park.  No  more  beautiful  or  healthful  location  could 
be  found  in  New  Orleans,  while  its  retirement  from  the 
crowded  part  of  the  City  renders  it  peculiarly  adapted  to 
study. 


LELAND   UNIVERSITY,  1902-1903.  11 

University  Hall  is  of  brick,  100  by  80  feet,  three  stories 
above  the  basement.  Here  are  the  chapel,  recitation 
rooms,  library,  museum,  offices  and  rooms  for  the  presi- 
dent, professors  and  male  students,  besides  accommoda- 
tions in  the  basement  for  recitation  rooms  for  the  Prepara- 
tory School. 

Chamberlain  Hall  is  also  of  brick,  100  by  50  feet,  three 
stories  above  the  basement,  in  which  are  the  rooms  of  the 
preceptress  and  lady  teachers  and  the  young  lady  pupils  ; 
also  music  rooms,  dining  room  and  laundry.  The  grounds 
comprise  four  entire  squares,  or  ten  acres. 

The  Manual  Training  Shop  is  a  frame  building,  fitted  out 
with  fairly  good  equipment  of  hand-tools  and  a  number  of 
foot-power  machines. 

ORGANIZATION.

ively to  the  degrees  in  Arts,  Philosophy  and  Science,  and

ciety  and  also  constitute  a  recognized  branch  of  the  National  I 
Society  of  Christian  Endeavor. 

There  is  a  Literary  Society,  the  "Philomathean,"  com- 
posed of  the  young  men  and  young  women,  which  holds 
weekly  meetings  for  mutual  improvement. 

Mr.  J.  S.  Dickerson,  of  the  "Chicago  Standard,"  offers  a 
prize  for  the  best  essay  in  the  second  year  normal,  for  the 
next  five  years.  The  topic  to  be  chosen  by  the  Professor 
of  English  in  charge. 

The  University  has  a  Library  and  Reading  Room  which  is 
supplied  with  journals  and  periodicals.  Additions  were 
made  as  follows  :  Miss  S.  Fanny  Burns,  100  Hymnals  for 
Chapel  service  ;  Mr.  John  S.  Pierson,  of  New  York  City, 
35  volumes  on  Missions;  Mr.  J.  S.  Dickerson,  Editor  of 
the  "Chicago  Standard."  SO  volumes  ;  Mrs.  M.  S.  Mitchell 
and  the  President,  a  number  each.  Two  good  recent  En- 
cyclopedias were  added.  Mr.  W.  S.  Burns,  N.  Y.  and 
Mrs.  Mary  Thomas  gave  money  for  the  purchase  of  books. 

Successful  work  requires  that  in  addition  to  the  com- 
petent teacher  the  student  should  be  provided  with  an 
adequate  text-book,  and  by  questions,  conversations,  lect- 
ures, experiments,  assigned  readings  and  observations, 
reports  on  special  topics,  and  according  to  the  subject  and 
to  the  maturity  of  the  student,  be  encouraged  to  the  use 
of  a  good  reference  library. 


GENERAL  RULES. 

It  is  assumed  that  all  who  enter  upon  the  courses  of 
study  do  so  for  the  purpose  of  acquiring  an  education  not 
only  of  the  intellect  but  also  of  character.  The  laws  of 
the   Institution   are  as  few  and  simple  as  the  proper  regu- 


• 


LELAND    UNIVERSITY,  1902-1903.  15 

lation  of  a  community  of  young  people  will  permit.  These 
laws  must  be  observed  not  only  in  their  letter  but  in  their 
spirit.  The  atmosphere  of  the  Institution  is  not  that  of 
arbritary  restraint  but  of  reasonable  conformity  to  reason- 
able laws.  The  Institution  does  not  wish  to  place  its  stamp  or 
bestow  its  honors  upon  anyone  who  is  not  willing  to  deport 
himself  as  a  gentleman.  Each  student  is  distinctly  placed 
upon  his  manhood,  and  if  he  abuses  his  privileges  in  con- 
duct, study,  or  work,  after  reasonable  caution,  he  must 
withdraw  from  the  Institution. 

No  student  who  is  deficient  in  rhetorical  or  class-room 
work  in  any  term  shall  be  eligible  to  the  office  of  Man- 
ager or  Director  in  any  student  organization,  or  to  be  a 
member  of  any  exhibiting  organization  or  of  any  contesting 
athletic  team  during  any  subsequent  term  until  such  defi- 
ciency is  made  up. 

Only  under  exceptional  circumstances  will  excuses  be 
granted  to  leave  the  Institution  during  term  time.  In 
such  cases  the  examination  in  the  studies  gone  over  by  the 
class  during  a  student's  absence  will  be  specially  searching 
and  a  high  degree  of  attainment  will  be  required.  The 
work  of  the  terra  begins  on  the  day  of  opening  and  con- 
tinues uninterruptedly  until  the  last  day  of  the  term. 

Unexcused  absences  from  recitations  count  as  zero  in 
making  up  the  monthly  averages  ;  excused  absences  have 
half  the  effect  in  lowering  a  student's  standing;  but  a  stu- 
dent may,  at  the  option  of  a  professor,  do  supplementary 
work  to  obviate  the  effect  upon  his  standing  of  excused 
absences. 

Students  are  required  to  take  up  enough  studies  to  keep 
them,  in  the  judgment  of  the  President,  sufficiently  em- 
ployed, but  will  not  be  allowed  to  take  up  more  or  other 
than  they  can  study  with  profit.  In  all  cases  quality  of 
work  is  esteemed  of  more  importance  than  quantity. 


16  LELAND  UNIVERSITY,  1902-1903. 

In  case  a  student  fails  to  be  present  at  the  examination 
of  his  class,  for  any  justifiable  reason,  his  examination  will 
be  held  at  such  time  as  the  Faculty  may  appoint,  but  in  no 
case  is  an  examination  granted  a  student  in  advance  of  the 
time  appointed  for  the  examination  of  the  class. 

If  a  student  has  failed  in  the  studies  of  a  term,  he  will 
not  be  permitted  to  enter  upon  the  studies  of  a  subsequent 
term  until  he  has  passed  in  the  subjects  in  which  he  failed, 
unless  a  postponement  of  examination  to  a  definite  time  is 
granted  by  the  Faculty. 

A  student  who  has  not  completed  his  rhetorical  work  in 
any  term  will  not  be  permitted  to  enter  upon  any  of  the 
work  of  the  succeeding  term  until  such  deficiency  is  made  up. 

The  duties  of  each  day  are  opened  with  religious  services 
which  all  students  are  required  to  attend.  All  residing  on  the 
campus  are  required  to  attend  the  stated  religious  services. 

The  President  of  the  University  will  be  in  his  office  in 
the  Main  Building  at  stated  hours  to  confer  with  students 
who  may  desire  advice  or  assistance. 

All  students  from  a  distance  will  occupy  rooms,  and  board 
in  the  Institution,  except  for  reasons  jointly  satisfactory  to 
the  President  of  the  University  and  the  Principal  and  Pre- 
ceptress of  the  Normal  School. 

No  student  is  allowed  to  leave  the  campus  at  any  time 
without  permission. 

No  person  will  be  dismissed  from  the  Institution  in  good 
standing  who  leaves  it  while  under  censure.  Nor  will  any 
student  be  graduated  who  has  not  discharged  all  his  pecu- 
niary obligations  to  the  Institution.

AUXILIARY    SCHOOLS. 

In  order  to  encourage  the  organization  of  local  schools 
for  primary  and  grammar  grade  work,  the  University  has 
made  provision  for  taking  under  its  charge  auxiliary 
schools  in  the  vicinity  of  New  Orleans  upon  the  following 
conditions  : 

1.  That  a  property  fairly  valued  at  $2,000  shall  be  pro- 
vided by  the  trustees  and  kept  in  repair  by  them,  with 
taxes,  insurance,  and  incidental  expenses  paid. 

2.  That  the  tuitions,  to  the  amount  at  least  of  $1  per 
month  for  each  pupil,  be  reported  and  paid  to  the  Uni- 
versity before  the  5th  of  each  school  month. 

3.  That  the  course  of  study  prepared  by  the  Leland 
Faculty  for  use  in  preparatory  schools,  or  "Leland  Acad- 
emies," be  adopted  by  the  school  with  such  text-books  as 
are  from  time  to  time  prescribed. 

4.  The  teachers  of  the  school  are  to  be  appointed  by  the 
President  of  Leland  University  in  consultation  with  the 
trustees  of  the  school,  and  their  names  will  appear  as 
members  of  our  faculty.  Their  salaries  are  to  be  paid  by 
the  University  on  terms  which  may  be  agreed  upon,  to  be 
adjusted  with  reference  to  the  apparent  needs  and  probable 
income  of  the  school. 


20  LELAND  UNIVERSITY,  1902-1903. 

5.  Graduates  of  the  school  will  be  received  into  the  reg- 
ular  normal  classes  of  the  University  without  examination. 
The  best  scholar  in  each  graduating  class  will  receive  from 
the  University  a  prize  of  $1  per  month,  deducted  from  his 
first  term  bill,  and  the  second  best  scholar  will  receive  a 
prize  of  50  cents  per  month  in  the  same  year. 

HOWE   INSTITUTE. 

The  first  auxiliary  of  Leland  University  was  established 
at  New  Iberia,  La.,  in  1890,  for  preparatory  and  grammar- 
school  work. 

The  sons  of  Peter  Howe,  of  Wenona,  111.,  out  of  filial 
regard  for  the  wishes  of  their  revered  father,  have  placed 
that  beautiful  property  under  the  control  and  management 
of  the  President  of  the  University. 

At  the  head  of  this  institution  has  been  placed  Prof. 
Jonas  Henderson,  M.A.,  who  filled  the  chair  of  History 
and  Mathematics  in  the  University  for  nine  years.  His 
ability  as  a  teacher  is  well  and  widely  known.  Mrs. 
Rebecca  J.  Henderson,  a  normal  graduate  of  Leland  Uni- 
versity, is  matron  of  the  boarding  department. 

LELAND   ACADEMY. 

In  November,  1892,  the  trustees  of  the  Slater  High 
School  at  Donaldsonville,  La.,  made  application  for  accept- 
ance as  an  auxiliary  school,  under  the  name  of  Leland 
Academy,  and  it  was  accepted  by  our  Board.  Anderson 
Cheatham,  B.A.,  is  the  efficient  principal. 

MONROE    ACADEMY. 

Early  in  1898,  the  Industrial  High  School  at  Monroe, 
La.,  was  admitted  to  affiliation  with  us,  having  given  satis- 
factory evidence  of  ability  to  meet  our  prescribed  condi- 
tions. The  Trustees  have  shown  commendable  enterprise 
in  securing  a  valuable  property  for  the  school,  and  good 
work  is  being  done. 


LELAND   UNIVERSITY,  1902-1903.  21 

Professor  Pruitt  is  highly  esteemed  as  an  able  man 
and  a  good  teacher,  and  Mrs.  Pruitt,  of  the  class  of  1898, 
was  the  first  college  woman  to  receive  the  degree  of  B.A. 
from  Leland  University. 

RUSTON     INSTITUTE. 

In  1900  the  Huston  Normal  and  Academic  Institute,  at 
Ruston,  La.,  was  accepted  as  an  auxiliary  school,  according 
to  the  conditions  prescribed  in  the  catalogue.  Its  prin- 
cipal, Professor  Powell,  is  a  graduate  of  the  College 
Department  of  the  University  of  the  class  of  1899.  He  is 
an  excellent  scholar,  an  able  and  efficient  teacher,  and  is 
pushing  the  work  of  the  school  with  energy  and  success. 

OPELOUSAS    HIGH    SCHOOL. 

In  February,  1902,  the  Opelousas  High  School,  under 
the  principalship  of  Moses  Bordelon,  graduate  of  the 
Normal  Department,  formally  made  application  to  become 
auxiliary  to  the  University.  The  school  is  a  new  one  and 
bids  fair  to  be  useful. 

CENTRAL    LOUISIANA    ACADEMY. 

This  well-known  school  has  for  some  years  been  under 
the  charge  of  Professor  W.  R.  Wright,  graduate  of  the 
Normal  Department.  The  school  has  a  large  influence. 
It  became  auxiliary  in  1902. 

CHENEYVILLE    ACADEMY, 

The  Academy  at  Cheneyville  for  some  time  has  been 
sending  well  prepared  students  to  the  University.  In 
1902,  under  the  principalship  of  Professor  William  G. 
Thomas,  graduate  of  the  Normal  Department,  it  became 
auxiliary  according  to  the  prescribed  conditions.  This 
School  is  very  well  equipped. 


22  LELAND   UNIVERSITY,  1902-1903. 


BUNKIE    ACADEMY 

Has  a  good  location.  Under  the  Principalship  of  Professor 
W.  0.  Boston,  one  of  our  Normal  Graduates,  it  has  twice 
enlarged,  and  is  still  cramped  for  room.  It  became  auxiliary 
this  year.  We  have  received  a  number  of  excellent  young 
people,  well  prepared,  from  this  School. 

HOUMA    ACADEMY. 

The  Fifth  District  Association  established  the  Houma 
Academy.  The  building  is  in  good  condition.  The  Prin- 
cipal, D.  F.  Ross,  M.A.,  LL.B.,  is  doing  very  good  service. 
The  School  has  a  good  field  ;  it  became  auxiliary  this  year.

PLAN  AND  PURPOSE  OF  THE  UNIVERSITY. 

Leland  University  was  incorporated  in  1870,  under  the  provi- 
sions of  the  Act  of  the  Legislature  of  Louisiana,  which  reads: 

"The  purposes  and  objects  of  this  corporation  are  the  estab- 
lishment and  maintenance  of  one  or  more  Institutions  of  learning 
for  the  education,  under  Christian  auspices,  of  young  men  and 
women,  particularly  for  the  training  of  preachers  and  teachers, 
and  to  receive  donations  of  property  for  educational  purposes'" 
•  •  •  »  Inasmuch  as  the  welfare  of  society,  and  not  pecu- 
niary gain,  is  the  object  of  this  corporation,  *  *  *  the 
Trustees  shall  not  have  power  to  encumber  by  mortgage  the 
whole  or  any  part  of  the  property,  nor  to  use  the  principal  of  any 
endowment  funds  for  the  current  expenses  of  its  work." 

It  is  open  to  all  persons  who  are  fitted  to  enjoy  its  advan- 
tages, without  distinction  of  race  or  religious  opinions. 

The  University  owes  its  existence  to  the  late  Holbrook  Cham- 
berlain, Esq.,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y.,  who  purchased  the  ground  in 
18(59,  ereeted  the  buildings;  largely  provided  for  the  expenses; 
assisted  its  management,  and  at  his  death  left  the  bulk  of  his 
property  as  an  endowment  fund,  the  interest  of  which  goes  to  the 
payment  of  teachers. 

During  the  summer  of  1899,  a  gift  of  $25,000  for  additional 
endowment  was  made  by  Chas.  M.  Pratt,  Esq.,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y. 

LOCATION. 

The  University  is  situated  on  St.  Charles  Avenue,  between 
Audubon  Place  and  Audubon  Street,  nearly  opposite  Audubon 
Park.  No  more  beautiful  or  healthful  location  could  be  found  in 
New  Orleans,  while  its  retirement  from  the  crowded  part  of  the 
City  renders  it  peculiarly  adapted  to  study. 

The  grounds  comprise  about  ten  acres.  The  row  of  live 
oaks  directly  fronting  the  avenue,  the  palms,  roses  and  shrub- 
bery here  and  there  over  the  Campus  with  the  stately  buildings 
make  it  a  very  attractive  place. 

University  Hall  is  of  brick,  100  by  80  feet,  three  stories  above 
the  basement.  Here  are  the  chapel,  recitation  rooms,  library, 
museum,  offices  for  the  president  and  rooms  for  the  professors  and 
male  students,  besides  accommodations  in  the  basement  for  recita- 
tion rooms  for  the  Preparatory  School. 


10  Leland  University. 

Chamberlain  Hall  is  also  of  brick,  100  by  50  feet,  three  stories 
above  the  basement,  in  which  are  the  rooms  of  the  president,  the 
preceptress  and  lady  teachers  and  the  female  students;  also  mu- 
sic rooms,  dining  room  and  laundry.  The  grounds  comprise 
four  entire  squares. 

The  Manual  Training  Shop  is  a  frame  building,  fitted  out 
with  fairly  good  equipment  of  hand-tools  and  a  number  of  foot- 
power  machines.

The  English  Preparatory  in  the  first  five  grades  accom- 
plishes the  work  laid  out  by  the  public  schools  of  New  Orleans 
for  these  grades,  the  limit  of  education  for  colored  people  by  the 
city.  The  grades  six,  seven  and  eight,  are  a  thorough  grammar 
or  common  school  course  in  reading,  spelling,  writing,  drawing, 
arithmetic,  grammar,  geography,  nature  study,  physiology  and 
United  States  history.  Great  stress  is  placed  upon  a  good  com- 
mand of  English  in  speech  and  composition  throughout  the 
grades.  The  mastery  of  this  course  is  required  to  enter  the  Nor- 
mal and  College  Preparatory.  It  is  under  the  charge  of  the 
Superintendent  of  the  Teachers'  Training  Class. 

The  Normal  Course  of  four  years  covers  the  ground  of  a 
thoroughly  organized  secondary  school  adjusted  to  fit  for  the 
Teachers'  Training  Class. 

The  Teachers'  Training  Class  is  designed  for  the  Normal 
Graduates  who  wish  to  fit  themselves  for  grammar  and  secondary 
work.  At  present  instruction  is  given  in  the  Grammar  School 
branches  by  the  critic  teachers.  Students  at  present  are  required 
to  give  at  least  one  period  a  day  in  practice  teaching  under  the 
supervision  of  the  superintendent  of  the  department. 

The  Course  is  open  to  College  Students  and  Normal  Gradu- 
ates. It  began  in  1902  with  twenty-seven  students,  six  from  the 
College  and  the  others  from  the  Normal.  Thus  far  twenty-rhree 
have  completed  the  course  from  the  beginning.  The  Classes  have 
numbered  seventy-two. 

The  College  Preparatory  Course  of  four  years  covers  the 
ground  of  a  thoroughly  organized  secondary  school  adjusted  to  fit 
for  college.  The  ground  covered  is  the  requirement  to  enter 
Leland  College. 

After  I90G,  the  completion  of  the  Teachers'  Training  Course 
in  the  Principles,  Theory  and  Practice  and  History  of  Educa- 
tion will  be  necessary  to  secure  the  Normal  Diploma. 

Music  :  A  four  years'  piano  course  ;  studies  ranging  through 
Duvernoy  and   Czerny  to  Bach's    Well   Tempered   Clavichord  ; 


14  Leland  University. 

other  musical  material  drawn  from  classic  composers,  from  Lange, 
Gurlitt,  Burgmuller,  to  Mozart,  Mendelssohn,  Chopin  and 
Beethoven. 

The  Piano  Course  is  supplemented  by  a  course  in  harmony, 
theory,  musical  history  and  ear  training.  The  diploma  will  be 
made  conditional  upon  the  intelligent  and  satisfactory  comple- 
tion of  this  theoretic  work. 

The  College  Course  of  the  Arts  aud  Sciences  takes  four 
years,  and  leads  to  the  Academic  degrees. 

The  Academic  degrees  are  given  for  resident  work. 

The  Manual  Training  is  a  careful  and  practical  teaching 
in  wood-working  and  mechanical  drawing.  It  is  proposed  to  add 
metal  work  the  coming  year. 

There  are  two  corn-Res  :  the  first  is  required  of  all  boys  of  the 
sixth,  seventh  and  eight  grades ;  the  second  of  the  Normal  and 
College  preparatory  boys. 

Domestic  Science  is  taught  in  theory  and  practice.  The 
girls  are  given  practical  instruction  in  household  duties  and 
cooking.

land  and  by  a  small  dairy. 

The  Divinity  School  is  intended  for  College  graduates  and 
those  of  equivalent  attainments,  and  requires  three  years'  resident 
work. 

The  Ministers'  Course  is  so  adjusted  as  to  take  a  Pastor  at 
any  stage  of  advancement,  and  to  give  him  an  indispensable  order 
of  study.  A  large  number  of  ministers  have  been  enabled  to  enter 
the  Normal  and  College  courses  from  the  help  gained  in  the  Min- 
isters' Classes. 

The  Masters'  degree  is  conferred  only  on  condition  that  the 
candidate  has  completed  a  course  of  liberal  study  under  the 
direction  of  the  Faculty,  sufficient  in  amount  to  constitute  an 
additional  year  of  college  work.  Particulars  may  be  learned  by 
addressing  the  President.

Regular  Church  Service  is  conducted  on  Sunday  morning  in 
the  College  Chapel. 

Special  emphasis  is  given  to  Bible  Study  under  the  charge  of 
the  Faculty.  This  year  there  were  two  volunteer  classes  in 
special  studies  in  the  Greek  Testament  under  the  charge  of  the 
Professors. 

A  course  of  lectures  on  the  Gospel  of  John  was  given  by  the 
President  at  the  morning  chapel. 

The  Principal  and  Preceptress  conduct  evening  chapel  in 
their  respective  halls. 

Each  year  a  course  of  study  covering  some  book  of  the  Bible, 
or  some  Biblical  subject  is  completed.  The  students  maintain  a 
voluntary  weekly  prayer  meeting  j  a  regular  Missionary  Society, 
the  topic  this  year  was,  Missions  in  Japan ;  and  constitute  a 
recognized  branch  of  the  National  Society  of  Christian  Endeavor 
with  a  regular  Sunday  evening  service. 

There  is  a  Literary  Society,  the  Philomathean,  composed 
of  the  students,  which  holds  weekly  meetings  for  mutual  im- 
provement. Under  certain  conditions  and  restrictions  a  portion 
of  the  essays,  declamations,  orations  and  debates  are  credited  in 
the  Normal  and  College  work. 

Mr.  J.  S.  Dickerson,  of  the  "Chicago  Standard,"  offers  a  prize

isters' Class. 

The  University  has  a  Library  and  Reading  Room  which  is 
supplied  with  journals  and  periodicals.  Additions  were  made  as 
follows : 


16  Leland  University. 

Dr.  Albert  Bushnell  Hart,  of  Harvard  University,  gave  a  num- 
ber of  volumes.  Hob.  E.  0.  Randall,  of  the  Ohio  State  University, 
gave  27  volumes  of  the  Ohio  Archeologieal  and  Historical  Society. 
The  American  Book  Company  made  a  valuable  addition  to  the 
Pedagogical  library. 

The  President  added  a  number  of  valuable  books,  two  good 
Encyclopaedias  were  purchased. 

The  aim  of  education,  in  so  far  as  it  is  liberal,  is  to  fit  a  man 
to  turn  such  ability  as  he  has  to  any  work  he  may  be  called  to  do. 
Successful  work  requires  that  in  addition  to  the  competent 
teacher,  the  student  should  be  provided  with  an  adequate  text- 
book, aud  by  questions,  conversations,  lectures,  experiments, 
assigned  readings  and  observations,  reports  on  special  topics,  and 
according  to  the  subject  and  to  the  maturity  of  the  student,  be 
encouraged  to  the  use  of  a  good  reference  library. 

General  Rules. 

It  is  assumed  that  all  who  enter  upon  the  courses  of  study 
do  so  for  the  purpose  of  acquiring  an  education  not  only  of  the 
intellect  but  also  of  character.  The  laws  of  the  Institution  are  as 
few  and  simple  as  the  proper  regulation  of  a  ccmmunity  of  young 
people  will  permit.  These  laws  must  be  observed  not  only  in 
their  letter  but  in  their  spirit.  The  atmosphere  of  the  Institution 
is  not  that  of  arbitrary  restraint  but  of  reasonable  conformity  to 
reasonable  laws.  The  Institution  does  not  wish  to  place  its  stamp 
or  bestow  its  honors  upon  anyone  who  is  not  willing  to  deport 
himself  as  a  gentleman.  Each  student  is  distinctly  placed  upon 
his  manhood,  and  if  he  abuses  his  privileges  in  conduct,  study, 
or  work,  after  reasonable  caution,  he  must  withdraw  from  the 
Institution.  No  student  will  be  retained  who  does  not  make 
progress  in  studies  and  in  morals. 

No  student  who  is  deficient  in  rhetorical  or  class-room  work 
in  any  term  shall  be  eligible  to  the  office  of  Manager  or  Director 
in  any  student  organization,  or  to  be  a  member  of  any  exhibiting 
organization  or  of  any  contesting  athletic  team  during  any  sub- 
sequent term  until  such  deficiency  is  made  up. 

Only  under  exceptional  circumstances  will  excuses  be  granted 
to  leave  the  Institution  during  term  time.       In  such  cases  the 


Leland  University.  17 

examination  in  the  studies  gone  over  by  the  class  during  a  stu- 
dent's absence  will  be  specially  searching,  and  a  high  degree  of 
attainment  will  be  required.  The  work  of  the  term  begins  on  the 
day  of  opening  and  continuues  uninterruptedly  until  the  last  day 
of  the  term. 

Unexcused  absences  from  recitations  count  as  zero  in  making 
up  the  monthly  averages;  excused  absences  have  half  the  effect 
in  lowering  a  student's  standing ;  but  a  student  may,  at  the  option 
of  a  professor,  do  supplementary  work  to  obviate  the  eflect  upon 
his  standing  of  excused  absences. 

If  a  student  is  irregular  in  his  attendance  on  the  exercises  of 
any  instructor,  the  instructor  may  impose  extra  work,  and  in 
case  the  absences  exceed  one-sixth  of  the  exercises  with  that  in- 
structor, the  student  is  debarred  from  the  regular  examination, 
and  must  be  reported  to  the  Faculty. 

Students  are  required  to  take  up  enough  studies  to  keep 
them,  in  the  judgment  of  the  President,  sufficiently  employed, 
but  will  not  be  allowed  to  take  up  more  or  other  than  they  can 
study  with  profit.  In  all  cases  quality  of  work  is  esteemed  of 
more  importance  than  quantity. 

In  all  cases  of  absence  from  an  examination  due  to  whatever 
cause,  the  deficiency  must  be  made  up  as  if  it  were  a  condition. 
In  no  case  is  an  examination  granted  a  student  in  advance  of  the 
time  appointed  for  the  examination  of  the  class. 

A  student  who  at  the  end  of  a  term  has  conditions  amounting 
to  half  the  term's  work  or  more,  may  not  graduate  with  his 
class. 

Every  day  student  is  required  to  attend  morning  prayers  in 
the  Chapel. 

All  residing  on  the  campus  are  required  to  attend  the  stated 
religious  services. 

Absences  from  regular  duties  make  the  offender  liable  to 
discipline  which  in  ordinary  cases  shall  be  suspension. 

A  student  who  has  not  completed  his  rhetorical  work  in  any 
term  will  not  be  permitted  to  enter  upon  any  of  the  work  of  the 
succeeding  term  until  such  deficiency  is  made  up. 

Any  absence  from  a  class  excercise  incurred  in  the  three 
days  before  vacation  or  before  or  after  a  recess  shall  count  as 
equivalent  to  two  absences  incurred  at  any  other  time. 


18  Leland  University. 

The  President  of  the  University  will  be  in  his  office  in  the 
Main  Building  at  stated  hours  to  confer  with  students  who  may- 
desire  advice  or  assistance. 

All  students  of  the  University  will  room  and  board  either 
on  the  campus  or  with  their  parents  or  legal  guardians  in  New 
Orleans,  and  in  immediate  vicinity. 

No  student  is  allowed  to  leave  the  campus  at  any  time  without 
permission. 

No  person  will  be  dismissed  from  the  Institution  in  good 
standing  who  leaves  it  while  under  censure.  Nor  will  any  stu- 
dent be  graduated  who  has  not  discharged  all  his  pecuniary 
obligations  to  the  Institution. 

No  person  is  admitted  to  the  University  as  a  candidate  for  the 
degree  of  Bachelor  of  Arts,  after  the  beginning  of  the  first  term 
of  the  Senior  year. 

A  candidate  coming  from  an  undergraduate  class  in  an 
approved  institution  may  be  allowed,  at  the  discretion  of  the 
Faculty,  to  enter  this  Universiy,  provided  he  presents  satisfactory 
certificates  from  his  former  Institution. 

Expenses. 

All  instruction,  except  in  Instrumental  Music,  is  free. 

Board,  per  month $12.00 

Incidental  Expenses,  for  day  scholars,  per  month 1.00

Board  and  Tuition,  in  Auxiliaries,  per  month 8.00 

All  University  expenses  must  be  paid  in  advance,  failure 
to  comply  with  this  rule  will  deprive  the  student  of  the  privileges 
of  the  University  until  payment  is  made,  unless  excused  by  special 
vote  of  the  Faculty. 

No  student  can  take  his  place  in  his  class  until  he  presents  a 
receipt  from  the  office. 

No  deductions  for  incidentals  for  less  than  half  a  month. 

All  students  are  required  to  perform  daily  one  hour  of  some 
form  of  manual  labor  under  the  direction  of  a  teacher  as  a  part 
of  their  payment  for  board. 

Rooms  are  furnished  with  bedstead,  mattress,  pillows,  quilts, 
chairs,  tables,  washstand,  mirror,  bowl  and  pitcher. 


Leland  University.  19 

Students  must  provide  themselves  with  sheets,  pillow-cases, 
towels,  napkins,  hair  and  tooth  brushes.  The  young  women  must 
be  provided  with  waterproof,  umbrella,  over-shoes  and  dark  under- 
skirts. The  wash-list  of  the  articles  of  plain  regular  wear  will 
be  furnished  each  student.  Elaborate  white  skirts,  dresses,  etc., 
will  not  be  received  in  the  school  laundry.  The  young  men  should 
provide  themselves  with  suitable  apparel  for  the  work-hour, 
manual  training  shop  and  agricultural  work. 

It  is  specially  desired  that  the  dress  of  pupils  shall  be  simple 
and  inexpensive. 

Students  are  charged  for  any  damage  to  their  rooms  or 
furniture,  whether  it  be  done  while  they  are  present  in  the  room 
or  absent  from  it,  whether  it  is  accidental  or  designed. 

Auxiliary  Schools. 

In  order  to  encourage  the  organization  of  local  schools  for 
primary  and  grammar  grade  work,  the  University  has  made 
provision  for  taking  under  its  charge  auxiliary  schools  in  the 
vicinity  of  New  Orleans  upon  the  following  conditions: 

1.  That  a  property  fairly  valued  at  $2,000  shall  be  provided 
by  the  trustees  and  kept  in  repair  by  them,  with  taxes,  insurance 
and  incidental  expenses  paid. 

2.  That  the  tuitions,  to  the  amount  at  least  of  $1  per  month 
for  each  pupil,  be  reported  and  paid  to  the  University  before  the 
5th  of  each  school  month. 

3.  That  the  course  of  study  prepared  by  the  Leland  Faculty 
for  use  in  preparatory  schools,  or  "Iceland  Academies,"  be  adopted 
by  the  school  with  such  text-books  as  are  from  time  to  time 
prescribed. 

4.  The  teachers  of  the  school  are  to  be  appointed  by  the 
President  of  Leland  University  in  consultation  with  the  trustees 
of  the  school,  and  their  names  will  appear  as  members  of  our 
Faculty.  Their  salaries  are  to  be  paid  by  the  University  on  terms 
which  may  be  agreed  upon,  to  be  adjusted  with  reference  to  the 
apparent  needs  and  probable  income  of  the  school. 

5.  Graduates  of  the  school  will  be  received  into  the  regu- 
lar normal  classes  of  the  University  without  examination.  The 
best  scholar  in  each  graduating  class  will  receive  from  the  Univer- 
sity a  prize  of  $1  per  month,  deducted  from  his  first  term  bill, 
and  the  second  best  scholar  will  receive  a  prize  of  50  cents  per 
month  in  the  same  year. 


20  Leland  University. 

Howe  Institute. 

The  first  auxiliary  of  Leland  University  was  established  at 
New  Iberia,  La.,  in  1890,  for  preparatory  and  grammar  school 
work. 

The  sons  of  Peter  Howe,  of  Wenona,  111.,  who,  out  of  filial 
regard  for  the  wishes  of  their  revered  father,  placed  that  beauti- 
ful property  under  the  control  and  management  of  the  President 
of  the  University  for  a  number  of  years,  last  year  gave  the  prop- 
erty in  fee  simple  to  the  school  management  and  added  a  handsome 
donation. 

At  the  head  of  this  Institution  has  been  placed  Pbof.  Jonas 
Henderson,  M.  A.,  who  filled  the  chair  of  History  and  Mathe- 
matics in  the  University  for  nine  years.  His  ability  as  a  teacher 
is  well  and  widely  known.  Mrs.  Rebecca  J.  Henderson,  a  normal 
graduate  of  Leland  University,  is  matron  of  the  boarding  depart- 
ment. 

Leland  Academy. 

In  November,  1892,  the  trustees  of  the  Slater  High  School  at 
Donaldsonville,  La.,  made  application  for  acceptance  as  an 
auxiliary  school,  under  the  name  of  Leland  Academy,  and  is  was 
accepted  by  our  Board.  Mrs.  George  W.  Osibin,  is  the  efficient 
Principal. 

Monroe  Academy. 

Early  in  1898,  the  Industrial  High  School  at  Monroe,  La., 
was  admitted  to  affiliation  with  us,  having  given  satisfactory 
evidence  of  ability  to  meet  our  prescribbed  conditions.  The 
Trustees  have  shown  commendable  enterprise  in  securing  a 
valuable  property  for  the  school,  and  good  work  is  being  done 
for  industrial  training.  Large  classes  are  maintained  in  music 
and  sewing. 

Rev.  J.  L.  Crossley,  B.  A.,  a  graduate  of  Leland  College  is 
the  acting  Principal. 

Ruston  Institute. 

In  1900  the  Ruston  Normal  and  Academic  Institute,  at 
Ruston,  La.,  was  accepted  as  an  auxiliary  school,  according  to 


Leland  University.  21 

the  conditions  prescribed  in  the  catalogue.  Its  Principal,  Pro- 
fessor Powell,  is  a  graduate  of  the  College  Department  of  the 
University  of  the  class  of  1899.  He  is  an  excellent  scholar,  an 
able  and  efficient  teacher,  and  is  pushing  the  work  of  the  school 
with  energy  and  success. 

Opelousas  High  School. 

In  February,  1902,  the  Opelousas  High  School,  formally 
made  application  to  become  auxiliary  to  the  University.  The 
school  is  a  new  one  and  bids  fair  to  be  useful.  Professor  Filman 
P.  Jackson,  B.A.,  a  graduate  of  our  College  is  the  Principal. 

Central  Louisiana  Academy. 
This  well-known  school  has  for  some  years  been  under  the 
charge   of   Professor   W.   R.    Wright,   graduate   of   the   Normal 
Department.     The  school  has  a  large  influence.     It  became  aux- 
iliary in  1902. 

Cheneyville  Academy. 

The  Academy  at  Cheneyville  for  some  time  has  been  sending 
well  prepared  students  to  the  University.  In  1902,  it  became 
auxiliary  according  to  the  prescribed  conditions.  The  school 
is  very  well  equipped.  Professor  A.  J.  Lagarde,  B.  A.,  of  Leland 
College  is  the  Principal. 

Bunkie  Academy. 

Has  a  good  location.  Under  the  principalship  of  Professor  W.  O. 
Boston,  one  of  our  Normal  Graduates,  it  has  twice  enlarged,  and 
is  still  cramped  for  room.  It  became  auxiliary  this  year.  We 
have  received  a  number  of  excellent  young  people,  well  prepared, 
from  this  School. 

Houma  Academy. 

I  The  Fifth  District  Association  established  the  Houma  Acad- 
emy. The  building  is  in  good  condition.  The  Principal,  D.  F. 
Ross,  M.  A.,  LL.  B.,  is  doing  very  good  service.    The  School  has 


22  Leland  University. 

Israel  Academy,  Belle  Alliance. 

The  Israel  Baptist  Church  of  Belle  Alliance,  Rev.  H.  C. 
Cotton,  Pastor,  has  built  a  good  school  building  and  maintains  a 
good  corps  of  teachers.  Miss  Philomene  Joseph,  a  graduate  of 
our  Normal  School,  is  the  Principal.  The  School  bids  fair  to  be 
a  very  useful  factor  in  promoting  education. 

Other  Academical  Schools. 

In  addition  to  these  Auxiliary  Academies,  there  are  under 
the  Baptist  State  Convention  and  the  Association,  and  supported 
by  the  churches  of  these  bodies,  schools  at  Baton  Rouge,  Shreve- 
port,  Gibsland,  Homer  and  Mansfield  with  an  enrollment  for  the 
year  of  about  1030.  There  are  also  a  great  number  of  private 
schools  held  in  Baptist  meeting  houses,  and  supported  by  the 
Churches  with  a  very  large  enrollment.

PLAN  AND  PURPOSE  OF  THE  UNIVERSITY. 

Leland  University  was  incorporated  in  1870,  nnder  the 
provisions  of  the  Act  of  the  Legislature  of  Louisiana,  which 
reads : 

"The  purposes  and  objects  of  this  corporation  are  the  es- 
lishment  and  maintenance  of  one  or  more  Institutions  of 
learning  for  the  education,  under  Christian  auspices,  of  young 
men  and  women,  particularly  for  the  training  of  preachers 
and  teachers  and  to  receive  donations  of  property  for  educa- 
tional purposes."  *  *  *  "Inasmuch  as  the  welfare  of  so- 
ciety, and  not  pecuniary  gain,  is  the  object  of  this  corpora- 
tion, *  *  *  the  Trustees  shall  not  have  power  to  en- 
cumber by  mortgage  the  whole  or  any  part  of  the  property, 
nor  to  use  the  principal  of  any  endowment  funds  for  the  cur- 
rent expenses  of  its  work." 

It  is  open  to  all  persons  who  are  fitted  to  enjoy  its  ad- 
vantages, without  distinction  of  race  or  religious  opinions. 

The  University  owes  its  existence  to  the  late  Holbrook 
Chamberlain,  Esq.,  of  Brooklyn,  X.  Y.,  who  purchased  the 
ground  in  1869,  erected  the  buildings ;  largely  provided  for 
the  expenses ;  assisted  its  management,  and  at  his  death  left 
the  bulk  of  his  property  as  an  endowment  fund,  the  interest 
of  which  goes  to  the  payment  of  teachers. 

During  the  summer  of  1899,  a  gift  of  $25,000  for  addi. 
tional  endowment  was  made  by  Chas.  M.  Pratt,  Esq.,  of 
Brooklyn,  N.  Y. 

LOCATION. 

The  University  is  situated  on  St.  Charles  Avenue,  be- 
tween Audubon  Place  and  Audubon  Street,  nearly  opposite 
Audubon  Park.  ISo  more  beautiful  or  healthful  location 
could  be  found  in  New  Orleans,  while  its  retirement  from  the 
crowded  part  of  the  city  renders  it  peculiarly  adapted  to 
study. 

The  grounds  comprise  about  ten  acres.  The  row  of  live 
oaks  directly  fronting  the  avenue,   the  palms,  roses  and 


Leland  University.  11 

shrubbery  here  and  there  over  the  Campus  with  the  stately 
buildings  make  it  a  very  attractive  place. 

University  Hall  is  of  brick,  100  by  80  feet,  three  stories 
above  the  basement.  Here  are  the  chapel,  recitation  rooms, 
library,  museum,  offices  for  the  president  and  rooms  for  the 
professors  and  male  students,  besides  accommodations  in  the 
basement  for  recitation  rooms  for  the  Preparatory  School. 

Chamberlain  Hall  is  also  of  brick,  100  by  50  feet,  three 
stories  above  the  basement,  in  which  are  the  rooms  of  the 
president,  the  preceptress  and  lady  teachers  and  the  female 
students ;  also  music  rooms,  dining  room  and  laundry. 

The  Manual  Training  Shop  is  a  frame  building,  fitted  out 
with  fairly  good  equipment  of  hand-tools  and  a  number  of 
foot-power  machines. 

ORGANIZATION. 

The  University  comprises  the  following  Departments  :

The  English  Preparatory  in  the  first  five  grades  ac- 
complishes the  work  laid  out  by  the  public  schools  of  New 
Orleans  for  these  grades,  the  limit  of  education  for  colored 
people,  by  the  city.  The  grades  six,  seven  and  eight  are  a 
complete  grammar  school  course  in  reading,  spelling,  writing, 
drawing,  arithmetic,  geography,  nature  study,  physiology 
and  United  States  history.  Great  stress  is  placed  upon  a 
good  command  of  English  in  speech  and  composition. 

Along  with  these  formal  studies,  the  tools  of  an  educa- 
tion, the  proper  ideals  are  so  set  forth  that  the  pupil  may  ac- 
quire moral  insight  so  that  he  may  be  consciously  and  with 
clear  intent  righteous.  The  competent  completion  of  this 
course  is  required  to  enter  the  College  Preparatory  and 
Normal  Courses. 

The  Academies  are  required  to  do  as  much  work  as  is 
outlined  for  the  eight  grades  at  the  Leland  Preparatory 
School.  In  all  cases  the  State-adopted  books  will  be  ac- 
cepted as  equivalent  to  the  books  adopted  above.  The  other 
books  greatly  enrich  the  course. 

The  College  Preparatory  Course  of  four  years 
covers  the  ground  of  a  thoroughly  organized  secondary 
school  adjusted  to  fit  for  college.  The  ground  covered  is  the 
requirement  to  enter  Leland  College. 

The  Normal  and  Teachers'  Training  Course 
covers  the  ground  of  a  thoroughly  organized  secondary  school 
adjusted  to  fit  for  teaching. 

At  present  instruction  is  given  in  the  grammar  school 
branches  by  the  critic  teachers.  Students  are  required  to 
give  at  least  one  period  a  day  in  practice  teaching  under  the 
supervision  of  the  Superintendent  of  the  Department. 

The  completion  of  this  course  in  the  principles  and  his- 
tory of  education,  in  the  theory  and  practice  of  teaching,  with 
satisfactory  evidence  of  aptness  to  teach  and  ability  to  disci- 
pline will  be  necessary  to  receive  a  Normal  Diploma. 


16  Leland  University. 

The  course  will  usually  take  five  years,  the  last  one 
ranking  as  the  Freshman  Year  in  college. 

This  course  began  in  1902  with  twenty-seven  students 
six  from  the  College  and  the  rest  from  the  Normal.  Thus 
far  thirty-five  have  completed  the  course.  The  classes  have 
numbered  ninety-three. 

Constant  reference  is  made  to  the  principles  of  educa- 
tion as  given  by  Laurie,  Harris  and  Eliot,  and  to  the 
methods  of  education  as  given  by  Garlick  and  McMurry, 
with  consultation  of  the  best  literature  on  the  subject. 

Music.  A  four  years'  piano  course;  studies  ranging 
through  Duvernoy  and  Czemy  to  Bach's  Well  Tempered 
Clavichord;  other  musical  material  drawn  from  classic  com- 
posers, from  Lange,  Gurlitt,  Burgmuller,  to  Mozart,  Men- 
delssohn, Chopin  and  Beethoven. 

The  Piano  Course  is  supplemented  by  a  course  in  har- 
mony, theory,  musical  history  and  ear  training.  The  diploma 
will  be  made  conditional  upon  the  intelligent  and  satisfactory 
completion  of  this  theoretic  work. 

Manual  Training  is  a  careful  and  practical  teaching  of 
Sloyd  for  the  sixth,  seventh  and  eighth  grades. 

Mechanical  drawing  and  woodworking  are  required  from 
the  first  and  second  year  College  Preparatory  and  Normal 
boys.  Every  student  above  these  grades  who  has  not  taken 
the  course  is  required  to  spend  one  year  in  the  Manual 
Training  Shop. 

Domestic  Science  is  taught  in  theory  and  practice.  The 
girls  are  given  practical  instruction  in  household  duties  and 
cooking. 

This  year  sewing  has  been  regularly  taught  to  the  sixth, 
seventh  and  eighth  grades  and  to  the  first  and  second  year 
Normal  girls. 

During  the  winter  a  night  school  was  maintained. 

The  general  principles  of  Agriculture  are  taught  in  the 
Normal  and  College,  illustrated  by  the  cultivation  of  four 
acres  of  land  and  by  a  small  dairy. 


Leland  University.  17 

Gray's  Anatomy  is  offered  as  an  elective  to  the  Juniors 
in  College. 

The  College  Course  of  the  Arts  and  Sciences  takes  four 
years,  and  leads  to  the  Academic  degrees. 

The  Master's  degree  is  conferred  only  on  condition  that 
the  candidate  has  completed  a  course  of  liberal  study  under 
the  direction  of  the  Faculty,  sufficient  in  amount  to  consti- 
lute  an  additional  year  of  the  college  work.  Particulars  may 
be  learned  by  addressing  the  President. 

The  Divinity  School  is  intended  for  College  graduates 
and  those  of  equivalent  attainments,  and  requires  three 
years'  resident  work. 

The  Ministers'  Course  is  so  adjnsted  as  to  take  a  Pastor 
at  any  stage  of  advancement,  and  to  give  him  an  indispen- 
sable order  of  study.  A  large  number  of  ministers  have 
been  enabled  to  enter  the  formal  and  College  Courses  from 
the  help  gained  in  the  Ministers'  Classes. 

A  still  larger  number  of  ministers  have  pursued  the 
regular  course,  giving  all  the  time  that  their  pastoral  labors 
would  permit  to  the  subjects  that  are  regularly  taught.  Xo 
time  limit  is  set  to  the  course ;  neither  is  diploma  nor  cer- 
tificate offered.  The  object  of  the  course  is  to  deepen  the 
spiritual  life,  to  give  a  wider  knowledge  of  the  Bible,  to  pro- 
mote efficiency  and  to  develop  power  in  the  work  of  the  min- 
istry. 

woman's  christian  workers'  class. 

The  President  of  the  Woman's  Baptist  State  Mission 
Society  for  Louisiana,  accompanied  by  a  number  of  the  mem- 
bers, made  formal  application  to  the  University  for  instruc- 
tton  in  soul  winning  and  general  church  work  for  women  who 
could  read,  who  are  of  sufficient  maturity  of  judgment  and 
are  approved  by  their  pastors  as  trustworthy. 

The  Professors  in  the  Theological  Department  gladly 
took  up  the  work.  The  first  part  of  the  instruction  is  an  ex- 
egesis of  those  passages  generally  used  for  inquirers,  for  the 


18  Leland  University. 

two-fold  purpose  of  deepening  the  spiritual  life  of  the  class 
and  of  promoting  efficiency.  It  is  proposed  to  give  instruc- 
tion in  the  fundamental  doctrines,  in  teaching,  in  Sunday 
School  and  in  general  lines  of  church  activity. 

Eegular  Church  Service  is  conducted  on  Sunday  morn- 
ing in  the  College  Chapel. 

Special  emphasis  is  given  to  Bible  Study  under  the 
charge  of  the  Faculty.  This  year  there  were  two  volunteer 
classes  in  special  studies  in  the  Greek  Testament  under  the 
charge  of  the  Professors. 

A  course  of  lectures  on  the  Acts  of  the  Apostles  was 
given  by  the  President  at  the  morning  chapel. 

The  Principal  and  Preceptress  conduct  evening  chapel  in 
their  respective  halls. 

Each  year  a  course  of  study  covering  some  book  of  the 
Bible,  or  some  Biblical  subject  is  completed.  The  students 
maintain  a  voluntary  weekly  prayer  meeting ;  a  regular  Mis- 
sionary Society,  the  topic  this  year  being  "Missions  in 
Africa,"  and  constitute  a  recognized  branch  of  the  National 
Society  of  Christian  Endeavor,  with  a  regular  Sunday  even- 
ing service. 

There  is  a  Literary  Society,  the  Philomathean,  com- 
posed of  the  students,  which  holds  weekly  meetings  for 
mutual  improvement.  Under  certain  conditions  and  restric- 
tions a  portion  of  the  essays,  declamations,  orations  and  de- 
bates are  credited  in  the  Normal  and  College  work. 

Mr.  J.  S.  Dickerson,  of  the  "Chicago  Standard,"  offers  a 
prize  for  the  best  essays  in  the  Third  Year  Normal,  for  the 
next  five  years.  The  topic  to  be  chosen  by  the  Professor  of 
English  in  charge. 

The  prize  for  1905  was  awarded  to  Beatrice  Gottleib. 

Professor  W.  K.  Brainerd,  a  former  teacher,  offers  two 
prizes  for  work  done  in  Agriculture  next  year. 

Bev.  Dr.  J.  P.  Philips,  a  former  professor,  offers  for  next 
year  three  prizes — one  in  Ethics,  one  in  English  and  one  for 
the  Ministers'  Class. 


Leland  University.  19 

The  University  has  a  Library  and  Beading  Boom  which 
is  supplied  with  journals  and  periodicals.  Additions  were 
made  as  follows : 

A  number  of  books  of  travel  and  on  religion  in  Africa ■, 
a  full  set  of  relief  maps  and  a  number  of  wall  maps. 

The  aim  of  education,  in  so  far  as  it  is  liberal,  is  to  fit  a 
man  to  turn  such  ability  as  he  has  to  any  work  he  may  be 
called  to  do.  It  is  not  so  much  to  feed  facts  as  to  educate, 
to  cultivate  fertility  in  resource  and  to  train  to  use  the 
powers  of  reasoning  in  original  and  unaided  work. 

Successful  work  requires  that  in  addition  to  the  compe- 
tent teacher,  the  student  should  be  provided  with  an  adequate 
text- book,  and  by  questions,  conversations,  lectures,  experi- 
ments, assigned  readings  and  observations,  reports  on  special 
topics,  and  according  to  the  subject  and  to  the  maturity  of  the 
student,  be  encouraged  to  the  use  of  a  good  reference  library. 

General  Rules. 

It  is  assumed  that  all  who  enter  upon  the  courses  of 
study  do  so  for  the  purpose  of  acquiring  an  education  not 
only  of  the  intellect,  but  also  of  character.  The  laws  of  the 
Institution  are  as  few  and  simple  as  the  proper  regulation  of 
a  community  of  young  people  will  permit.  These  laws  must 
be  observed  not  only  in  their  letter,  bat  in  their  spirit.  The 
atmosphere  of  the  Institution  is  not  that  of  arbitrary  re- 
straint, but  of  reasonable  conformity  to  reasonable  laws. 
The  Institution  does  not  wish  to  place  its  stamp  or  bestow  its 
honors  upon  anyone  who  is  not  willing  to  deport  himself  as  a 
gentleman.  Each  student  is  distinctly  placed  upon  his  man- 
hood, and  if  he  abuses  his  privileges  in  conduct,  study,  or 
work,  after  reasonable  caution,  he  must  withdraw  from  the 
Institution.  No  student  will  be  retained  who  does  not  make 
progress  in  studies  and  in  morals. 

Xo  student  who  is  deficient  in  rhetorical  or  class-room 
work  in  any  term  shall  be  eligible  to  the  office  of  Manager  or 
Director  in  any  student  organization,  or  to  be  a  member  of 


20  Leland  University. 

any  exhibiting  organization  of  any  contesting  athletic 
team  during  any  subsequent  term  until  such  deficiency  is 
made  up. 

Only  under  exceptional  circumstances  will  excuses  be 
granted  to  leave  the  Institution  during  term  time.  In  such 
cases  the  examination  in  the  studies  gone  over  by  the  class 
during  a  student's  absence  will  be  specially  searching,  and  a 
high  degree  of  attainment  will  be  required.  The  work  of  the 
term  begins  on  the  day  of  opening  and  continues  uninterrupt- 
edly until  the  last  day  of  the  term. 

Unexcused  absences  from  recitations  count  as  zero  in 
making  up  the  monthly  averages ;  excused  absences  have  half 
the  effect  in  lowering  a  student's  standing;  but  a  student 
may,  at  the  option  of  a  professor,  do  supplementary  work  to 
obviate  the  effect  upon  his  standing  of  excused  absences. 

If  a  student  is  irregular  in  his  attendance  on  the  exer- 
cises of  any  instructor,  the  instructor  may  impose  extra  work, 
and  in  case  the  absences  exceed  one-sixth  of  the  exercises 
with  that  instructor,  the  student  is  debarred  from  the  regu- 
lar examination,  and  must  be  reported  to  the  Faculty. 

Students  are  required  to  take  up  enough  studies  to  keep 
them,  in  the  judgment  of  the  President,  sufficiently  employed, 
but  will  not  be  allowed  to  take  up  more  or  other  than  they 
can  study  with  profit.  In  all  cases  quality  of  work  is  es- 
teemed of  more  importance  than  quantity. 

In  all  cases  of  absence  from  an  examination  due  to 
whatever  cause,  the  deficiency  must  be  made  up  as  if  it  were 
a  condition.  In  no  case  is  an  examination  granted  a  student 
in  advance  of  the  time  appointed  for  the  examination  of  the 
class. 

A  student  who  at  the  end  of  a  term  has  conditions 
amounting  to  half  the  term's  work  or  more,  may  not  graduate 
with  his  class. 

Every  day  student  is  required  to  attend  morning  prayers 
in  the  Chapel. 


Leland  University.  21 

All  residing  on  the  campus  are  required  to  attend  the 
stated  religious  services. 

Absences  from  regular  duties  make  the  offender  liable  to 
discipline,  which  in  ordinary  cases  shall  be  suspension. 

A  student  who  has  not  completed  his  rhetorical  work  in 
any  term  will  not  be  permitted  to  enter  upon  any  of  the  work 
of  the  succeeding  term  until  such  deficiency  is  made  up. 

Any  absence  from  a  class  exercise  incurred  in  the  three 
days  before  vacation  or  before  or  after  a  recess  shall  count  as 
equivalent  to  two  absences  incurred  at  any  other  time. 

The  President  of  the  University  will  be  in  his  office  in 
the  Main  Building  at  stated  hours  to  confer  with  students 
who  may  desire  advice  or  assistance. 

All  students  of  the  University  will  room  and  board  either 
on  the  campus  or  with  their  parents  or  legal  guardians  in 
New  Orleans,  and  in  immediate  vicinity. 

No  student  is  allowed  to  leave  the  campus  at  any  time 
without  permission. 

No  person  will  be  dismissed  from  the  Institution  in  good 
standing  who  leaves  it  while  under  censure.  Nor  will  any 
student  be  graduated  who  has  not  discharged  all  his  pe- 
cuniary obligations  to  the  Institution. 

No  person  is  admitted  to  the  University  as  a  candidate 
for  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Arts,  after  the  beginning  of  the 
first  term  of  the  Senior  year. 

A  candidate  coming  from  an  undergraduate  class  in  an 
approved  institution  may  be  allowed,  at  the  discretion  of  the 
Faculty,  to  enter  this  University,  provided  he  presents  satis- 
factory certificates  from  his  former  Institution. 

Expenses. 

All  instruction,  except  in  Instrumental  Music,  is  free. 

Board,  per  month $12.00 

Incidental  Expenses,  for  day  scholars,  per  month 1.00

22  Leland  University. 

All  University  expenses  must  be  paid  in  advance. 
Failure  to  comply  with  this  rule  will  deprive  the  student  of 
the  privileges  of  the  University  until  payment  is  made,  unless 
excused  by  special  vote  of  the  Faculty. 

No  student  can  take  his  place  in  his  class  until  he  pre- 
sents a  receipt  from  the  office. 

No  deductions  for  incidentals  for  less  than  half  a  month. 

All  students  are  required  to  perform  daily  one  hour  of 
some  form  of  manual  labor  under  the  direction  of  a  teacher  as 
a  part  of  their  payment  for  board. 

Eooms  are  furnished  with  bedstead,  mattress,  pillows, 
quilts,  chairs,  tables,  washstand,  mirror,  bowl  and  pitcher. 

Students  must  provide  themselves  with  sheets,  pillow-

The  young  men  should  provide  themselves  with  suitable 
apparel  for  the  work  hour,  manual  training,  shop  and  agri- 
cultural work. 

It  is  specially  desired  that  the  dress  of  pupils  shall  be 
simple  and  inexpensive.  Parents  and  guardians  are  urged 
to  co-operate  with  the  school  in  this  direction. 

Students  are  charged  for  any  damage  to  their  rooms  or 
furniture,  whether  it  be  done  while  they  are  present  in  the 
room  or  absent  from  it,  whether  it  is  accidental  or  designed. 

Auxiliary  Schools. 

In  order  to  encourage  the  organization  of  local  schools 
for  primary  and  grammar  grade  work,  the  University  has 
made  provision  for  taking  under  its  charge  auxiliary  schools 
in  the  vicinity  of  New  Orleans  upon  the  following  conditions : 


Leland  University.  23 

1.  That  a  property  fairly  valued  at  $2,000  shall  be  pro- 
vided by  the  trustees  and  kept  in  repair  by  them,  with  taxes, 
insurance  and  incidental  expenses  paid. 

2.  That  the  tuitions',  to  the  amount  at  least  of  $1  per 
month  for  each  pupil,  be  reported  and  paid  to  the  University 
before  the  5th  of  each  school  month. 

3.  That  the  course  of  study  prepared  by  the  Leland 
Faculty  for  use  in  preparatory  schools,  or  "Leland  Acade- 
mies," be  adopted  by  the  school  with  such  text-books  as  are 
from  time  to  time  prescribed. 

4.  The  teachers  of  the  school  are  to  be  appointed  by  the 
President  of  Leland  University  in  consultation  with  the 
trustees  of  the  school,  and  their  names  will  appear  as  mem- 
bers of  our  Faculty.  Their  salaries  are  to  be  paid  by  the 
University  on  terms  which  may  be  agreed  upon,  to  be  ad- 
justed with  reference  to  the  apparent  needs  and  probable  in- 
come of  the  school. 

5.  Graduates  of  the  school  will  be  received  into  the 
regular  normal  classes  of  the  University  without  examina- 
tion. The  best  scholar  in  each  graduating  class  will  receive 
from  the  University  a  prize  of  $1  per  month,  deducted  from 
his  first  term  bill,  and  the  second  best  scholar  will  receive  a 
prize  of  50  cents  per  month  in  the  same  year.  The  principal 
must  in  each  case  certify  to  the  standing  of  these  honor 
first  year  normal  pupils. 

Howe  Institute. 

The  first  auxiliary  of  Leland  University  was  established 
at  Xew  Iberia,  La.,  in  1890,  for  preparatory  and  grammar 
school  work. 

The  sons  of  Peter  Howe,  of  Wenona,  111.,  who,  out  of 
filial  regard  for  the  wishes  of  their  revered  father,  placed 
that  beautiful  property  under  the  control  and  management  of 
the  President  of  the  University  for  a  number  of  years,  in 
1904  gave  the  property  in  fee  simple  to  the  school  manage- 
ment and  added  a  handsome  donation. 


24  Leland  University. 

In  1905-6  the  Sixth  District  Baptist  Association  erected 
a  beautiful  three-story  brick  building  costing  $S,000. 

At  the  head  of  this  Institution  has  been  placed  Prof. 
Jonas  Henderson,  M.  A.,  who  filled  the  chair  of  History 
and  Mathematics  in  the  University  for  nine  years.  His 
ability  as  a  teacher  is  well  and  widely  known.  Mrs.  Eebecca 
J.  Henderson,  a  normal  graduate  of  Leland  University,  is 
matron  of  the  boarding  department. 

Leland  Academy. 

In  Kovember,  1892,  the  trustees  of  the  Slater  High 
School  at  Donald  son  ville,  La.,  made  application  for  accept- 
ance as  an  auxiliary  school,  under  the  name  of  Leland  Acad- 
emy, and  it  was  accepted  by  our  Board.  Mrs.  George  W. 
Osibin,  a  normal  graduate  of  Leland  University,  is  the 
efficient  Principal. 

Monroe  Academy. 

Early  in  1898,  the  Industrial  High  School  at  Monroe,  La,, 
was  admitted  to  affiliation  with  us,  having  given  satisfactory 
evidence  of  ability  to  meet  our  prescribed  conditions.  The 
Trustees  have  shown  commendable  enterprise  in  securing  a 
valuable  property  for  the  school,  and  good  work  is  being 
done  for  industrial  training.  Large  classes  are  maintained  in 
music  and  sewing. 

Prof.  Madison  J.  Foster,  B.  A.,  a  graduate  of  Leland 
College,  is  the  Principal. 

Ruston  Institute. 

In  1900  the  Ruston  Normal  and  Academic  Institute,  at 
Euston,  La.,  was  accepted  as  an  auxiliary  school,  according  to 
the  conditions  prescribed  in  the  catalogue.  Its  Principal, 
Professor  Powell,  is  a  graduate  of  the  College  Depart- 
ment of  the  University  of  the  class  of  1899. 

Opelousas  High  School. 

In  February,  1902,  the  Opelousas  High  School  formally 
made  application  to   become   auxiliary   to    the  University.

The  school  is  a  new  one  and  bids  fair  to  be  useful.  Prof. 
Filman  P.  Jackson,  B.  A.,  a  graduate  of  our  College,  is  the 
Principal. 

Central  Louisiana  Academy. 

This  well-known  school  has  for  some  years  been  under  the 
charge  of  Prof.  W.  K.  Wright,  a  graduate  of  the  Normal 
Department.  The  school  has  a  large  influence.  It  became 
auxiliary  in  1902. 

Cheneyville  Academy. 

The  Academy  at  Cheneyville  for  some  time  has  been 
sending  well  prepared  students  to  the  University.  In  1902 
it  became  auxiliary  according  to  the  prescribed  conditions. 
The  school  is  very  well  equipped.  Prof.  A.  J.  Lagarde, 
B.  A.,  of  Leland  College,  is  the  Principal. 

Bunkie  Academy 

has  a  good  location.  It  is  under  the  principalship  of  Prof. 
H.  B.  Banks,  one  of  our  Normal  students.  It  has  twice  en- 
larged, and  is  still  cramped  for  room.  It  became  auxiliary 
in  1902.  We  have  received  a  number  of  excellent  young 
people,  well  prepared,  from  this  school. 

Houma  Academy. 

The  Fifth  District  Association  established  the  Houma 
Academy.  The  building  is  in  good  condition.  The  Princi- 
pal, D.  F.  Boss,  M.  A.,  LL.  B.,  is  doing  very  good  service. 
The  school  has  a  good  field.    It  became  auxiliary  in  1902. 

Israel  Academy,  Belle  Alliance. 

The  Israel  Baptist  Church  of  Belle  Alliance,  Eev.  H.  C. 
Cotton,  Pastor,  has  built  a  good  school  building  and  main- 
tains a  good  corps  of  teachers.  Miss  Philomene  Joseph, 
a  graduate  of  our  Normal  School,  is  the  Principal.  The 
school  bids  fair  to  be  a  very  useful  factor  in  promoting  edu- 
cation. 


26  Leland  University. 

Other  Academical  Schools. 

In  addition  to  these  Auxiliary  Academies,  there  are 
under  the  Baptist  State  Convention,  the  District  Associa- 
tions, and  supported  by  the  churches  of  these  bodies,  schools 
at  Baton  Rouge,  Shreveport,  Gibsland,  Homer,  Mansfield, 
Tallulah,  Minden,  Franklin,  Rayville,  with  an  enrollment  of 
1,265.  There  are  also  a  great  number  of  private  schools  held 
in  Baptist  meeting  houses,  some  supported  by  the  State,  but 
a  great  many  more  supported  by  the  churches,  with  a  very 
large  enrollment.

PLAN  AND  PURPOSE  OF  THE  UNIVERSITY, 

Leland  University  was  incorporated  in  1870,  under  the  provisions 
of  the  Act  of  the  Legislature  of  Louisiana,  which  reads : 

"The  purposes  and  objects  of  this  corporation  are  the  establish- 
ment and  maintenance  of  one  or  more  Institutions  of  learning  for 
the  education,  under  Christian  auspices,  of  young  men  and  women, 
particularly  for  the  training  of  preachers  and  teachers  and  to  re- 
ceive donations  of  property  for  educational  purposes.  *  *  *  In- 
asmuch as  the  welfare  of  society,  and  not  pecuniary  gain,  is  the  ob- 
ject of  this  corporation,  *  *  *  the  Trustees  shall  not  have  power 
to  encumber  by  mortgage  the  whole  or  any  part  of  the  property,  nor 
to  use  the  principal  of  any  endowment  funds  for  the  current  ex- 
penses of  its  work." 

It  is  open  to  all  persons  who  are  fitted  to  enjoy  its  advantages, 
without  distinction  of  race  or  religious  opinions. 

The  University  owes  its  existence  to  the  late  Holbrook  Chamber- 
lain, Esq.,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y.,  who  purchased  the  ground  in  1869, 
erected  the  buildings ;  largely  provided  for  the  expenses ;  assisted 
its  management,  and  at  his  death  left  the  bulk  of  his  property  as  an 
endowment  fund,  the  interest  of  which  goes  to  the  payment  of 
teachers. 

During  the  summer  of  1899,  a  gift  of  $25,000  for  additional  en- 
dowment was  made  by  Chas.  M.  Pratt,  Esq.,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y. 

LOCATION. 

The  University  is  situated  on  St.  Charles  Avenue,  between 
Audubon  Place  and  Audubon  Street,  nearly  opposite  Audubon  Park. 
No  more  beautiful  or  healthful  location  could  be  found  in  New  Or- 
leans, while  its  retirement  from  the  crowded  part  of  the  city  renders 
it  peculiarly  adapted  to  study. 

The  grounds  comprise  about  ten  acres.  The  row  of  live  oaks 
directly  fronting  the  avenue,  the  palms,  roses  and  shrubbery  here 
and  there  over  the  Campus,  with  the  stately  buildings,  make  it  a 
very  attractive  place. 


10  Leland  University. 

University  Hall  is  of  brick.  100  by  80  feet,  three  stories  above 
the  basement.  Here  are  the  chapel,  recitation  rooms,  library, 
museum,  offices  for  the  president  and  rooms  for  the  professors  and 
male  students,  besides  accommodations  in  the  basement  for  recita- 
tion rooms  for  the  Preparatory  School. 

Chamberlain  Hall  is  also  of  brick,  100  by  50  feet,  three  stories 
above  the  basement,  in  which  are  the  rooms  of  the  president,  the 
preceptress  and  lady  teachers  and  the  female  students ;  also  music 
rooms,  dining  room  and  laundry. 

The  Manual  Training  Shop  is  a  frame  building,  fitted  out  with 
fairly  good  equipment  of  hand-tools  and  a  number  of  foot-power 
machines. 

ORGANIZATION. 

The  University  comprises  the  following  Departments  : 

1.  The  College  offers  courses  of  study  leading  respectively  to 
the  degrees  in  Arts,  Philosophy  and  Science,  and  is  open  to  both 
sexes. 

2.  The  College  Preparatory  is  designed  to  fit  students  for  Col- 
lege. 

3.  The  Normal  Department  is  designed  to  fit  students  for  teach- 
ing, and  offers  instruction  in  pedagogy  and  practice  teaching. 

4.  The  English  Preparatory  Department  and  Academies  fit 
students  for  the  Normal  School. 

5.  Instrumental  Music  is  thoroughly  taught.  Fifty  lessons  in 
Vocal  Music,  elementary  principles  and  regular  class  practice  are 
given  each  year  to  all  pupils. 

6.  The  Manual  Training  Department  comprises  instruction  in 
Wood- working,  Metal  Work,  Agriculture,  Sewing  and  Domestic 
Science. 

7.  Night  School. 

8.  Woman's  Christian  Workers'  Class. 

9.  The  Theological  School  offers  two  courses  : 

I.  Full  and  regular  Theological  instruction  for  College  grad- 
uates and  those  of  equivalent  attainments  ;  and, 

II.  A  Minister's  course,  carefully  prepared  for  Pastors. 


Leand  University.  11 


DEPARTMENT  OF  INSTRUCTION. 

THEOLOGICAL  DEPARTMENT. 

I.  The  Theological  Course  is  intended  for  college  graduates  and 
those  of  equivalent  attainment,  and  requires  three  years'  resident 
work;  in  Old  Testament  and  Related  Subjects;  in  New  Testament 
and  Related  Subjects;  in  Biblical  Theology;  in  Church  History;  in 
Systematic  Theology  and  Ethics;  in  Practical  Theology.  Diplomas 
will  be  given  only  to  those  who  have  satisfactorily  completed  the 
class  room  work  in  recitation  from  a  standard  text  book,  from  the 
lectures,  and  the  requirements  in  examinations,  in  theses  and  in 
sermons. 

II.  The  Ministers'  Course  is  so  adjusted  as  to  take  a  pastor  at 
any  stage  of  his  advancement  and  give  him  an  indispensable  course 
of  study  in  Rhetoric;  in  Biblical,  Church  and  General  History;  in  the 
Books  of  the  Old  and  New  Testament  in  English  in  the  order  of 
their  relative  importance;  in  the  Fundamental  Doctrines;  in  Sermon 
Preparation  and  in  Pastoral  Duties. 

A  number  of  ministers  have  been  enabled  to  enter  the  normal 
and  college  courses  from  the  help  gained  in  the  Ministers'  Classes 
and  a  few  are  preparing  to  enter  the  Theological  Course. 

III.  A  large  number  of  ministers  have  pursued  a  regular  course, 
giving  all  the  time  that  their  pastoral  labors  would  permit  to  the 
subjects  that  are  regularly  taught.  No  time  limit  is  set  to  the 
course;  neither  is  diploma  nor  certificate  offered.  The  object  of  the 
course  is  to  deepen  the  spiritual  life,  to  give  a  wider  knowledge  of 
the  Bible,  to  promote  efficiency,  and  to  develop  power  in  the  work 
of  the  ministry. 

That  Denomination  is  in  grave  danger  that  does  not  require  of 
its  ministers  a  knowledge  of  the  contents  of  the  Bible,  of  the  system 
of  Christian  truth,  of  the  relations  of  Christian  truth  to  the  science 
and  philosophy  of  our  day,  of  the  history  of  the  Church,  of  its 
polity,  government,  discipline  and  public  worship,  of  the  principles 
of  Christian  ethics    and  of  the  methods  of  religious  education.

TEACHERS'   TRAINING  COURSE. 

The  Normal  and  Teachers'  Training  Course  teaches  the  subjects 
of  a  thoroughly  organized  secondary  school  and  gives  instruction  by 
critic  teachers  in  the  principles  and  theory  of  teaching  in  general 
and  of  each  of  the  grammar  school  branches  in  particular.  Students 
are  required  to  give  one  period  a  day  in  practice  teaching,  under  the 
supervision  of  the  Superintendent  of  the  department,  for  one  year. 
The  course  takes  five  years,  the  last  year  ranking  as  the  Freshman 
year  in  College.  The  completion  of  this  course  with  satisfactory  evi- 
dence of  aptness  to  teach,  and  ability  to  discipline  will  be  necessary 
to  receive  a  Normal  diploma.

The  Engush  Preparatory  in  the  first  five  grades  accom- 
plishes the  work  laid  out  by  the  public  schools  of  New  Orleans  for 
these  grades,  the  limit  of  education  for  colored  people,  by  the  city. 
The  grades  six,  seven  and  eight  are  a  complete  grammar  school 
course  in  reading,  spelling,  writing,  drawing,  arithmetic,  geography, 
nature  study,  physiology  and  United  States  history.  Great  stress  is 
placed  upon  a  good  command  of  English  in  speech  and  composition.

An  orderly  school,  with  a  properly  adjusted  curriculum,  under 
competent  teachers,  is  a  very  efficient  means  of  moral  training. 

The  school  that  cannot  command  cheerful  obedience  to  reason- 
able methods  of   instruction  and  discipline  is  a  moral  failure.     The 


Iceland  University.  15 

students  who  will  not  adjust  themselves  to  such  regulation  should 
be  dismissed  as  incorrigible. 

Along  with  these  formal  studies,  the  tools  of  an  education,  the 
proper  ideals  are  so  set  forth  that  the  pupil  may  acquire  moral  in- 
sight, so  that  he  may  be  consciously  and  with  clear  intent  righteous. 
The  competent  completion  of  this  course  is  required  to  enter  the 
College  Preparatory  and  Normal  Courses. 

The  Academies  are  required  to  do  as  much  work  as  is  outlined 
for  the  eight  grades  at  the  University  Preparatory  School.  In  all  cases 
the  State-adopted  books  will  be  accepted  as  equivalent  to  the  books 
adopted  above.     The  other  books  greatly  enrich  the  course. 

Successful  work  requires  that  in  addition  to  the  competent 
teacher,  the  student  should  be  provided  with  an  adequate  text-book, 
and  by  questions,  conversations,  lectures,  experiments,  assigned 
readings  and  observations,  reports  on  special  topics,  and  according 
to  the  subject  and  to  the  maturity  of  the  student,  be  encouraged  to 
the  use  of  a  good  reference  library.  The  aim  of  education,  in  so  far 
as  it  is  liberal,  is  to  fit  a  man  to  turn  such  ability  as  he  has  to  any 
work  he  may  be  called  to  do.  It  is  not  so  much  to  feed  facts  as  to 
educate,  to  cultivate  fertility  in  resource  and  to  train  to  use  the 
powers  of  reasoning  in  original  and  unaided  work. 

woman's  christian  workers'  class. 

The  President  of  the  Woman's  Baptist  State  Mission  Society  for 
Louisiana,  accompanied  by  a  number  of  the  members,  made  formal 
application  to  the  University  for  instruction  in  soul  winning  and 
general  church  work  for  women  who  could  read,  who  were  of  suf- 
ficient maturity  of  judgment  and  were  approved  by  their  pastors  as 
trustworthy. 

The  Professors  in  the  Theological  Department  gladly  took  up  the 
work.  The  first  part  of  the  instruction  is  an  exegesis  of  those  pas- 
sages generally  used  for  inquirers,  for  the  two-fold  purpose  of  deep- 
ening the  spiritual  life  of  the  class  and  of  promoting  efficiency.  It 
is  proposed  to  give  instruction  in  the  fundamental  doctrines,  in 
teaching,  in  Sunday  School  and  in  general  lines  of  Church  activity. 


16  I<ei,and  University. 

This   year  Johnston's    Studies  for   Personal  Workers    and   the 
Gospel  of  John  formed  the  basis  of  the  instruction. 

Music.  A  four  years'  piano  course;  studies  ranging  through 
Duvernoy  and  Czerny  to  Bach's  Well  Tempered  Clavichord;  other 
musical  material  drawn  from  classic  composers,  from  Ivange,  Gurlitt, 
Burgmuller,  to  Mozart,  Mendelssohn,  Chopin  and  Beethoven. 

The  Piano  Course  is  supplemented  by  a  course  in  harmony, 
theory,  musical  history  and  ear  training.  The  diploma  will  be  made 
conditional  upon  the  intelligent  and  satisfactory  completion  of  this 
theoretic  work. 

Besides  the  attention  given  to  correct  singing  on  all  public  occa- 
sions, instruction  in  the  art  of  teaching  vocal  music  is  given  to  the 
Teachers'  Training  Class  and  to  the  College. 

Manual  Training  is  a  careful  and  practical  teaching  of  Sloyd 
for  the  fifth,  sixth  and  seventh  grades. 

Mechanical  drawing  and  woodworking  are  required  from  the 
eighth  grade  first  and  second  year  College  Preparatory  and  Normal 
boys.  Kvery  student  above  these  grades  who  has  not  taken  the 
course  is  required  to  spend  one  year  in  the  Manual  Training  Shop. 

Metal  working  is  given  to  the  upper  classes,  with  reference  to 
practice  in  actual  life.     Many  girls  elect  work  in  the  shop. 

Domestic  Science  is  taught  in  theory  and  practice.  The  girls 
are  given  practical  instruction  in  household  duties  and  cooking. 

This  year  sewing  has  been  regularly  taught  through  the  eight 
grades  and  to  the  first,  and  second  year  Normal  girls. 

A  night  school  is  maintained  for  boys  and  men  for  six  months  in 
the  year. 

The  general  principles  of  Agriculture  are  taught  in  the  Normal 
and  College,  illustrated  by  the  cultivation  of  four  acres  of  land  and 
by  a  small  dairy. 

Public  Worship.  Regular  Church  Service  is  conducted  on 
Sunday  morning  in  the  College  Chapel. 

Special  emphasis  is  given  to  Bible  Study  under  the  charge  of  the 
Faculty.  This  year  there  were  two  volunteer  classes  in  special 
studies  in  the  Greek  Testament  under  the  charge  of  the  Professors. 


L,ei,and  University.  17 

A  course  of  lectures  on  the  Gospel  of  Matthew  was  given  by  the 
President  at  the  morning  chapel. 

The  Principal  and  Preceptress  conduct  evening  chapel  in  their 
respective  halls. 

Each  year  a  course  of  study  covering  some  book  of  the  Bible,  or 
some  Biblical  subject  is  completed.  The  students  maintain  a  volun- 
tary weekly  prayer  meeting,  a  regular  Missionary  Society,  and  con- 
stitute a  recognized  branch  of  the  National  Society  of  Christian  En- 
deavor, with  a  regular  Sunday  evening  service. 

There  is  a  Literary  Society,  the  Phii^omathean,  composed  of 
the  students,  which  holds  weekly  meetings  for  mutual  improvement. 
Under  certain  conditions  and  restrictions  a  portion  of  the  essays, 
declamations,  orations  and  debates  are  credited  in  the  Normal  and 
College  work. 

The  debates  are  intensive  studies  in  some  important  topic,  in 
sociology  or  governmental  policy,  in  politics  or  history,  and  give 
abundant  opportunity  for  literary  research  work,  as  well  as  drill  in 
logic  and  argument  and  public  address.  Well  prepared  serious  de- 
bate is  a  noble  element  in  a  college  training. 

The  degree  of  Master  of  Arts  may  be  conferred  only  upon  those 
who  hold  a  Bachelor's  degree,  in  the  liberal  arts  and  sciences,  from 
this  or  another  approved  college  maintaining  similar  standards  of 
liberal  education,  who  shall  have  completed  a  course  of  liberal  study 
under  the  direction  of  the  faculty  sufficient  in  amount  to  constitute 
an  additional  year  of  college  work  of  advanced  character. 

Mr.  J.  S.  Dickerson,  of  the  "Chicago  Standard,"  offers  a  prize 
for  the  best  essay  in  the  Third  Year  Normal,  for  the  next  five 
years,  the  topic  to  be  chosen  by  the  Professor  of  English  in  charge. 

Rev.  Dr.  J.  P.  Philips,  a  former  professor,  offers  for  next  year 
three  prizes— one  in  Ethics,  one  in  English  and  one  for  the  Minis- 
ters' Class. 

The  University  has  a  Library  and  Reading  Room  which  is  sup- 
plied with  journals  and  periodicals.  Additions  were  made  as  fol- 
lows, a  number  of  books  of  travel,  history,  science,  literature,  re- 
ligion and  several  wall  maps.

The  President  is  in  the  habit  each  year  of  reading  with  the 
Senior  College  Class  some  book  bearing  on  the  studies  of  the  term. 
President  Henry  Churchill  King's  "Rational  Living"  and  Professor 
James  Orr's  "God's  Image  in  Man"  were  read  and  discussed  this 
session. 

The  method  of  instruction  must  be  varied  according  to  the  na- 
ture of  the  subject  taught.  A  text-book  should  be  used  as  a  guide 
and  as  a  suggestion  of  the  instruction  to  be  imparted  and  the 
method  of  doing  so.  The  student  should  be  held  strictly  account- 
able for  the  text  book  as  to  substance  and  order  of  presentation,  but 
the  instruction  should  go  far  beyond  its  limitations. 

In  advanced  work,  the  branches  must  be  presented  practically, 
comparatively,  historically,  with  a  view  of  leading  the  student  to 
the  apprehension  of  the  subject  as  a  whole,  and  in  its  organic  re- 
lations. 

The  highest  practical  scholars  must  be  well  grounded  in  theo- 
retical knowledge.  There  are  enough  studies  of  an  undisputedly  and 
eminently  liberal  character  to  fill  each  curriculum  of  any  institution 
to  repletion.     Over  crowding  of  studies  tinges  with  vanity. 

This  institution  stands  for  the  conviction,  in  the  words  of  Dean 
Andrew  Fleming  West,  '  'That  the  true  utility  is  the  long  utility 
which  serves  to  make  a  whole  life  useful  and  that  it  is  the  end  for 
which  men  live  that  make  them  useful  or  useless;  *  *  that  there  are 
College  studies  essential  for  all  who  take  the  College  course,  that  it 
is  the  completion  of  these  which  opens  to  the  student  the  best  all- 
round  view  of  the  knowledge  most  serviceable  for  his  whole  after- 
life, and  that  the  idea  of  discipline  and  duty,  in  studies  as  well  as  in 
conduct,  underlie  any  real  development  of  the  one  true  freedom 
of  the  human  spirit." 

Admission  of  Students. 

Examinations  for  entrance  to  the  various  classes  are  held  pre- 
ceding Commencement  and  on  the  day  preceding  the  opening  of  the 
school  year.

This  is  the  work  of  a  High  School  course  of  four  years,  and  of 
the  College  Preparatory  course  at  Leland  in  particular. 

The  satisfactory  completion  of  the  Eight  grades  of  a  public 
school  course  is  required  to  enter  the  first  year  Normal  or  College 
Preparatory  Course.  Admission  to  higher  classes  will  be  permitted 
only  to  those  who  have  satisfactorily  passed  examinations  in  the 
work  already  completed  by  the  class  they  wish  to  enter. 

The  text-books  given  in  the  course  of  study  of  the  English 
Preparatory  and  College  Preparatory  Schools  indicate  the  require- 
ment in  each  branch. 

General  Rules. 

It  is  assumed  that  all  who  enter  upon  the  courses  of  study  do  so 
for  the  purpose  of  acquiring  an  education  not  only  of  the  intellect, 
but  also  of  character.  The  laws  of  the  Institution  are  as  few  and 
simple  as  the  proper  regulation  of  a  community  of  young  people 
will  permit.  These  laws  must  be  observed  not  only  in  their  letter, 
but  in  their  spirit.  The  atmosphere  of  the  Institution  is  not  that 
of  arbitrary  restraint,  but  of  reasonable  conformity  to  reasonable 
laws.  Each  student  is  distinctly  placed  upon  his  manhood,  and  if 
he  abuses  his  privileges  in  conduct,  study  or  work,  or  work  hour 
after   reasonable  caution,  he  must   withdraw   from   the  Institution. 


20  IyELAND  University. 

No  student  will  be  retained  who  does  not  make  progress  in  studies 
and  in  morals. 

No  student  who  is  deficient  in  rhetorical  or  class  room  work  in 
any  term  shall  be  eligible  to  the  office  of  Manager  or  Director  in 
any  student  organization,  or  to  be  a  member  of  any  exhibiting 
organization  or  an)-  contesting  athletic  team  during  any  subsequent 
term  until  such  deficency  is  made  up. 

Only  under  exceptional  circumstances  wrill  excuses  be  granted  to 
leave  the  Institution  during  term  time.  In  such  cases  the  examina- 
tion in  the  studies  gone  over  by  the  class  during  a  student's  absence 
will  be  specially  searching,  and  a  high  degree  of  attainment  will  be 
required.  The  work  of  the  term  begins  on  the  day  of  opening  and 
continues  uninterruptedly  until  the  last  day  of  the  term. 

Unexcused  absences  from  recitations  count  as  zero  in  making  up 
the  monthly  averages;  excused  absences  have  half  the  effect  in 
lowering  a  student's  standing;  but  a  student  may,  at  the  option  of  a 
professor,  do  supplementary  work  to  obviate  the  effect  upon  his 
standing  of  excused  absences. 

If  a  student  is  irregular  in  his  attendance  on  the  exercises  of  any 
instructor,  the  instructor  may  impose  extra  work,  and  in  case  the 
absences  exceed  one-sixth  of  the  exercises  with  that  instructor, 
the  student  is  debarred  from  the  regular  examination,  and  must  be 
reported  to  the  Faculty. 

Students  are  required  to  take  up  enough  studies  to  keep  them, 
in  the  judgment  of  the  President,  sufficiently  employed,  but  will 
not  be  allowed  to  take  up  more  or  other  than  they  can  study  with 
profit.  In  all  cases  quality  of  work  is  esteemed  of  more  importance 
than  quantity. 

In  all  cases  of  absence  from  an  examination  due  to  whatever 
cause,  the  deficiency  must  be  made  up  as  if  it  were  a  condition. 
In  no  case  is  an  examination  granted  a  student  in  advance  of  the 
time  appointed  for  the  examination  of  the  class. 

A  student,  who  at  the  end  of  a  term  has  conditions  amounting 
to   half   the   term's  work  or  more,  may  not  graduate  with  his  class.

All  residing  on  the  campus  are  required  to  attend  the  stated 
religious  services. 

Absences  from  regular  duties  make  the  offender  liable  to  disci- 
pline, which  in  ordinary  cases  shall  be  suspension. 

A  student  who  has  not  completed  his  rhetorical  work  in  any 
term  will  not  be  permitted  to  enter  upon  any  of  the  work  of  the 
succeeding  term  until  such  deficiency  is  made  up. 

Any  absence  from  a  class  exercise  incurred  in  the  three  days 
before  vacation  or  before  or  after  a  recess  shall  count  as  equivalent 
to    two    absences  incurred  at  any  other  time. 

The  President  of  the  University  will  be  in  his  office  in  the  Main 
Building  at  stated  hours  to  confer  with  students  who  may  desire

All  students  of  the  University  will  room  and  board  either  on  the 
campus  or  with  their  parents  or  legal  guardians  in  New  Orleans, 
and  in  immediate  vicinity. 

No  student  is  allowed  to  leave  the  campus  at  any  time  without 
permission. 

No  person  will  be  dismissed  from  the  Institution  in  good  standing 
who  leaves  it  while  under  censure.  Nor  will  any  student  be  gradu- 
ated who  has  not  discharged  all  his  pecuniary  obligations  to  the 
Institution. 

No  person  is  admitted  to  the  University  as  a  candidate  for  the 
degree  of  Bachelor  of  Arts,  after  the  beginning  of  the  first  term  of 
the  Senior  year. 

A  candidate  coming  from  an  undergraduate  class  in  an  approved 
institution  may  be  allowed,  at  the  discretion  of  the  Faculty,  to  enter 
this  University,  provided  he  presents  satisfactory  certificates  from 
his  former  Institutions. 

No  Certificate  or  statement  as  to  work  done  in  his  department 
is   granted   by   any   professor  or   instructor   to  an  undergraduate.

and  inexpensive.  Parents  and  guardians  are  urged  to  co-operate 
with  the  school  in  this  direction. 


Leland  University.  23 

Students  are  charged  for  any  damage  to  their  rooms  or  furniture, 
whether  it  be  done  while  they  are  present  in  the  room  or  absent 
from  it,  whether  it  be  accidental  or  designed. 

All  required  text  books  and  stationery  may  be  bought  at  the 
University  book-store  for  cash  at  the  regular  school-book,  state 
adopted  prices. 

Auxiliary  Schools. 

In  order  to  encourage  the  organization  of  local  schools  for 
primary  and  grammar  grade  work,  the  University  has  made  provision 
for  taking  under  its  charge  auxiliary  schools  in  the  vicinity  of 
New   Orleans   upon    the   following   conditions: 

1.  That  a  property  fairly  valued  at  $2,000  shall  be  provided  by 
the  trustees  and  kept  in  repair  by  them,  with  taxes,  insurance  and 
incidental  expenses  paid. 

2.  That  the  tuitions,  to  the  amount  at  least  of  $1.00  per  month 
for  each  pupil,  be  reported  and  paid  to  the  University  before  the  5th 
of  each  school  month. 

3.  That  the  course  of  study  prepared  by  the  Leland  Faculty 
for  use  in  preparatory  schools,  or  '  'Leland  Academies, ' '  be  adopted 
by  the  school  with  such  text-books  as  are  from  time  to  time 
prescribed. 

4.  The  teachers  of  the  school  are  to  be  appointed  by  the  Presi- 
dent of  Leland  University  in  consultation  with  the  trustees  of  the 
school,  and  their  names  will  appear  as  members  of  our  Faculty. 
Their  salaries  are  to  be  paid  by  the  University  on  terms  which  may 
be  agreed  upon;  to  be  adjusted  with  reference  to  the  apparent 
needs  and  probable  income  of  the  school. 

5.  Graduates  of  the  school  will  be  received  into  the  regular 
normal  classes  of  the  University  without  examination.  The  best 
scholar  in  each  graduating  class  will  receive  from  the  University  a 
prize  of  $1  per  month,  deducted  from  his  first  term  bill,  and  the 
second  best  scholar  will  receive  a  prize  of  50  cents  per  month  in  the 
same  year.  The  principal  must  in  each  case  certify  to  the  standing 
of  these  honor  first  year  normal  pupils.

Howe  Institute. 

The  first  auxiliary  of  Iceland  University  was  established  at 
New  Iberia,  La.,  in  1890,  for  preparatory  and  grammar  school  work. 

The  sons  of  Peter  Howe,  of  Wenona,  111.,  who,  out  of  filial 
regard  for  the  wishes  of  their  revered  father,  placed  that  beautiful 
property  under  the  control  and  management  of  the  President  of  the 
University  for  a  number  of  years,  in  1904  gave  the  property  in  fee 
simple    to  the  school  management  and  added  a  handsome  donation. 

In  1905-6  the  Sixth  District  Baptist  Association  erected  a 
beautiful  three-story  brick  building  costing  $8,000. 

At  the  head  of  this  Institution  has  been  placed  Prof.  Jonas 
Henderson,  M.  A.,  who  filled  the  chair  of  History  and  Mathematics 
in  the  University  for  nine  years.  His  ability  as  a  teacher  is  well  and 
widely  known.  Mrs.  Rebecca  J.  Henderson,  a  normal  graduate  of 
Leland  University,  is  matron  of  the  boarding  department. 

Leland  Academy. 

In  November,  1892,  the  trustees  of  the  Slater  High  School  at 
Donaldsonville,  La.,  made  application  for  acceptance  as  an  auxiliary 
school,  under  the  name  of  Leland  Academy,  and  it  was  accepted  by 
our  Board.  Mrs.  George  W.  Osibin,  a  normal  graduate  of  Leland 
University,  is  the  efficient  Principal. 

Monroe  Academy. 

Early  in  1898,  the  Industrial  High  School  at  Monroe,  La.,  was 
admitted  to  affiliation  with  us,  having  given  satisfactory  evidence  of 
ability  to  meet  our  prescribed  conditions.  The  Trustees  have  shown 
commendable  enterprise  in  securing  a  valuable  property  for  the 
school,  and  good  work  is  being  done  for  industrial  training.  Large 
classes  are  maintained  in  music  and  sewing.  Prof.  Madison  J. 
Foster,  B.  A.,  a   graduate   of   Leland    College,  is   the   Principal. 

Opelousas  High  School. 

In  February,  1902,  the  Opelousas  High  School  formally  made 
application  to  become  auxiliary  to  the  Leland  University.  The 
school  is  a  new  one  and  bids  fair  to  be  useful.  Prof.  Firman  P. 
Jackson,  B.  A.,  a  graduate  of  our  College,  is  the  Principal. 


Lei,and  University.  25 

Central  Louisiana  Academy. 

This  well  known  school  has  for  some  years  been  under  the 
charge  of  Prof.  W.  R.  Wright,  a  graduate  of  our  Normal  Depart- 
ment.    The  school  has  a  large  influence.    It  became  auxiliary  in  1902. 

Cheneyville   Academy. 

The  Academy  at  Cheneyville  for  some  time  has  been  sending 
well  prepared  students  to  the  University.  In  1902  it  became  auxili- 
ary according  to  the  prescribed  conditions.  The  school  is  very  well 
equipped.  Prof.  Albert  Iv.  Yates,  B.  A.,  of  Iceland  College, 
is  the  Principal. 

Bunkie  Academy. 

Bunkie  Academy  has  a  good  location.  It  is  under  the  principal- 
ship  of  Prof.  W.  G.  Thomas,  one  of  our  Normal  students.  It 
has  twice  enlarged,  and  is  still  cramped  for  room.  It  became 
auxiliary  in  1902.  We  have  received  a  number  of  excellent  young 
people,  well  prepared,  from  this  school. 

Houma  Academy. 

The  Fifth  District  Association  established  the  Houma  Academy. 
The  building  is  in  good  condition.  The  Principal,  A.  J.  L,agarde, 
B.  A.,  is  doing  very  good  service.  The  school  has  a  good  field. 
It  became  auxiliary  in  1902. 

Israel  Academy,  Belle  Alliance. 

The  Israel  Baptist  Church  of  Belle  Alliance,  Rev.  H.  C. 
Cotton,  Pastor,  has  built  a  good  school  building  and  maintains  a 
good  corps  of  teachers.  Miss  Phii^omene  Joseph,  a  graduate  of 
our  Normal  School,  is  the  Principal.  The  school  bids  fair  to  be  a 
very  useful  factor  in  promoting  education. 

Minden  Academy. 

The  Fourteenth  District  Baptist  Association  has  established  a 
good  school  at  Minden,  Louisiana.  REV.  P.  P.  Meu«ON,  Th.  B.,  is 
the    efficient    Principal.     The    school    became    auxiliary    in    1907. 


26  Lei,and  University. 

Other  Academical  Schools. 

In  addition  to  these  Auxiliary  Academies,  there  are  under  the 
Baptist  State  Convention,  the  District  Associations,  and  supported 
by  the  churches  of  these  bodies,  schools  at  Baton  Rouge,  Shreveport, 
Gibsland,  Homer,  Mansfield,  Tallulah,  Ruston,  Franklin,  Rayville, 
with  an  enrollment  of  1,696.  There  are  also  a  great  number  of 
private  schools  held  in  Baptist  meeting  houses,  some  supported  by 
the  State,  but  a  great  many  supported  by  the  churches,  with 
a  very  large  enrollment.

PLAN  AND  PURPOSE  OF  THE  UNIVERSITY. 

Leland  University  was  incorporated  in  1870,  nnder  the  provisions 
of  the  Act  of  the  Legislature  of  Louisiana,  which  reads  : 

"The  purposes  and  objects  of  this  corporation  are  the  establish- 
ment and  maintenance  of  one  or  more  Institutions  of  learning  for 
the  education,  under  Christian  auspices,  of  yonng  men  and  women, 
particularly  for  the  training  of  preachers  and  teachers,  and  to  re- 
ceive donations  of  property  for  educational  purposes.  *  *  *  In- 
asmuch as  the  welfare  of  society,  and  not  pecuniary  gain,  is  the  ob- 
ject of  this  corporation,  *  *  *  the  Trustees  shall  not  have  power 
to  encumber  by  mortgage  the  whole  or  any  part  of  the  property,  nor 
to  use  the  principal  of  any  endowment  funds  for  the  current  ex- 
penses of  its  work." 

It  is  open  to  all  persons  who  are  fitted  to  enjoy  its  advantages, 
without  distinction  of  race  or  religious  opinions. 

The  University  owes  its  existence  to  the  late  Holbrook  Chamber- 
lain, Ksq.,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y.,  who  purchased  the  ground  in  1869, 
erected  the  buildings ;  largely  provided  for  the  expenses ;  assisted 
its  management,  and  at  his  death  left  the  bulk  of  his  property  as  an 
endowment  fund,  the  interest  of  which  goes  to  the  payment  of 
teachers. 

During  the  summer  of  1899,  a  gift  of  $25,000  for  additional  en- 
dowment was  made  by  Chas.  M.  Pratt,  Esq.,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y. 

LOCATION. 

The  University  is  situated  on  St.  Charles  Avenue,  between 
Audubon  Place  and  Audubon  Street,  nearly  opposite  Audubon  Park. 
No  more  beautiful  or  healthful  location  could  be  found  in  New  Or- 
leans, while  its  retirement  from  the  crowded  part  of  the  city  renders 
it  peculiarly  adapted  to  study. 

The  grounds  comprise  about  ten  acres.  The  row  of  live  oaks 
directly  fronting  the  avenue,  the  palms,  roses  and  shrubbery  here 
and  there  over  the  Campus,  with  the  stately  buildings,  make  it  a 
very  attractive  place. 


Lexand  University.  11 

University  Hall  is  of  brick,  100  by  80  feet,  three  stories  above 
the  basement.  Here  are  the  chapel,  recitation  rooms,  library, 
museum,  offices  for  the  president  and  rooms  for  the  professors  and 
male  students,  besides  accommodations  in  the  basement  for  recita- 
tion rooms  for  the  Preparatory  School. 

Chamberlain  Hall  is  also  of  brick,  100  by  50  feet,  three  stories 
above  the  basement,  in  which  are  the  rooms  of  the  president,  the 
preceptress  and  the  professors  and  the  female  students  ;  also  music 
rooms,  dining  room  and  laundry. 

The  Manual  Training  Shop  is  a  frame  building,  fitted  out  with 
fairly  good  equipment  of  hand-tools  and  a  number  of  foot-power 
machines. 

ORGANIZATION. 

The  University  comprises  the  following  Departments  : 

1 .  The  College  offers  courses  of  study  leading  respectively  to 
the  degrees  in  Arts,  Philosophy  and  Science,  and  is  open  to  both 
sexes. 

2.  The  College  Preparatory  is  designed  to  fit  students  for  Col- 
lege. 

3.  The  Normal  Department  is  designed  to  fit  students  for  teach- 
ing, and  offers  instruction  in  pedagogy  and  practice  teaching. 

4.  The  English  Preparatory  Department  and  Academies  fit 
students  for  the  Normal  School. 

5.  Instrumental  Music  is  thorough!  3'  taught.  Fifty  lessons  in 
Vocal  Music,  elementary  principles  and  regular  class  practice  are 
given  each  year  to  all  pupils 

6.  The  Manual  Training  Department  comprises  instruction  in 
Wood- working,  Metal  Work,  Agriculture,  Sewing  and  Domestic 
Science. 

7.  Night  School. 

8.  Woman's  Christian  Workers'  Class. 

8.     The  Theological  School  offers  two  courses  : 

I.  Full  and  regular  Theological  instruction  for  College  grad- 
uates and  those  of  equivalent  attainments  ;  and, 

II.  A  Minister's  course,  carefully  prepared  for  Pastors. 


DEPARTMENT  OF  INSTRUCTION. 

THEOLOGICAL  DEPARTMENT. 

I.  The  Theological  Course  is  intended  for  college  graduates  and 
those  of  equivalent  attainment,  and  requires  three  years'  resident 
work ;  in  Old  Testament  and  Related  Subjects ;  in  New  Testament 
and  Related  Subjects ;  in  Biblical  Theology ;  in  Church  History ;  in 
Systematic  Theology  and  Ethics;  in  Practical  Theology.  Diplomas 
will  be  given  only  to  those  who  have  satisfactorily  completed  the 
class  room  work  in  recitation  from  a  standard  text  book,  from  the 
lectures,   and  the  requirements  in  examinations,    in  theses  and  in 

sermons. 

II.  The  Ministers'  Course  is  so  adjusted  as  to  take  a  pastor  at 
any  stage  of  his  advancement  and  give  him  an  indispensable  course 
of  study  in  Rhetoric  ;  in  Biblical,  Church  and  General  History  ;  in  the 
Books  of  the  Old  and  New  Testament  in  English  in  the  order  of 
their  relative  importance ;  in  the  Fundamental  Doctrines ;  in  Sermon 
Preparation  and  in  Pastoral  Duties.  Diplomas  are  given  to  those 
who  satisfactorily  complete  this  course. 

III.  A  large  number  of  ministers  have  pursued  a  regular  course, 
giving  all  the  time  that  their  pastoral  labors  would  permit  to  the 
subjects  that  are  regularly  taught.  No  time  limit  is  set  to  the 
course  ;  neither  is  diploma  nor  certificate  offered.  The  object  of  the 
course  is  to  deepen  the  spiritual  life,  to  give  a  wider  knowledge  of 
the  Bible,  to  promote  efficiency,  and  to  develop  power  in  the  work 
of  the  ministry. 

A  number  of  ministers  have  been  enabled  to  enter  the  normal 
and  college  courses  from  the  help  gained  in  the  Ministers'  Classes 
and  a  few  are  preparing  to  enter  the  Theological  Course. 

That  Denomination  is  in  grave  danger  that  does  not  require  of 
its  ministers  a  knowledge  of  the  contents  of  the  Bible,  of  the  system 
of  Christian  truth,  of  the  relations  of  Christian  truth  to  the  science 
and  philosophy  of  our  day,  of  the  history  of  the  Church,  of  its 
polity,  government,  discipline  and  public  worship,  of  the  principles 
of  Christian  ethics  and  of  the  methods  of  religious  education.

ent of  the  department,  for  one  year.  The  course  takes  five  years, 
the  last  year  ranking  as  the  Freshman  year  in  College.  The  com- 
pletion of  this  course  with  satisfactory  evidence  of  aptness  to  teach,

given  by  Garlick,  McMurry  and  De  Garmo,  with  consultation  of  the 
best  literature  on  the  subject. 

The  subject  of  education  is  further  developed  in  the  College  by 
studies  in  the  Psychology  and  Philosophy  of  Education.

The  Engush  Preparatory  in  the  first  five  grades  accom- 
plishes the  work  laid  out  by  the  public  schools  of  New  Orleans  for 
these  grades,  the  limit  of  education  for  colored  people,  by  the  city. 
The  grades  six,  seven  and  eight  are  a  complete  grammar  school 
course  in  reading,  spelling,  writing,  drawing,  arithmetic,  geography, 
nature  study,  physiology  and  United  States  history.  Great  stress  is 
placed  upon  a  good  command  of  English  in  speech  and  composition.

An  orderly  school,  with  a  properly  adjusted  curriculum,  under 
competent  teachers,  is  a  very  efficient  means  of  moral  training. 

The  school  that  cannot  command  cheerful  obedience  to  reason- 
able methods  of  instruction  and  discipline  is  a  moral  failure.  The 
students  who  will  not  adjust  themselves  to  such  regulation  should 
be  dismissed  as  incorrigible. 

Along  with  these  formal  studies,  the  tools  of  an  education,  the 
proper  ideals  should  be  so  set  forth  that  the  pupil  may  acquire  moral 
insight,  so  that  he  may  be  consciously  and  with  clear  intent 
righteous.  The  competent  completion  of  this  course  is  required  to 
enter  the  College  Preparatory  and  Normal  Courses. 

The  Academies  are  required  to  do  as  much  work  as  is  outlined 
for  the  eight  grades  at  the  University  Preparatory  School.  In  all 
cases  the  State-adopted  books  will  be  accepted  as  equivalent  to  the 
books  adopted  above.     The  other  books  greatly  enrich  the  course. 

Successful  work  requires  that  in  addition  to  the  competent 
teacher,  the  student  should  be  provided  with  an  adequate  text-book, 
and  by  questions,  conversations,  lectures,  experiments,  assigned 
readings  and  observations,  reports  on  special  topics,  and  according 
to  the  subject  and  to  the  maturity  of  the  student,  be  encouraged  to 
the  use  of  a  good  reference  library.  The  aim  of  education,  in  so  far 
as  it  is  liberal,  is  to  fit  a  man  to  turn  such  ability  as  he  has  to  any 
work  he  may  be  called  to  do.  It  is  not  so  much  to  feed  facts  as  to 
educate,  to  cultivate  fertility  in  resource  and  to  train  to  use  the 
powers  of  reasoning  in  original  and  unaided  work, 

WOMAN'S  CHRISTIAN  WORKERS'  CI<ASS. 

The  President  of  the  Woman's  Baptist  State  Mission  Society  for 
Louisiana,  accompanied  by  a  number  of  the  members,  made  formal 
application  to  the  University  for  instruction  in  soul  winning  and 
general  church  work  for  women  who  could  read,  who  were  of  suf- 
ficient maturity  of  judgment  and  were  approved  by  their  pastors  as 
trustworthy. 


Lkland  University.  17 

The  Professors  in  the  Theological  Department  gladly  took  up  the 
work.  The  first  part  of  the  instruction  is  an  exegesis  of  those  pas- 
sages generally  used  for  inquirers,  for  the  two-fold  purpose  of  deep- 
ening the  spiritual  life  of  the  class  and  of  promoting  efficiency.  It 
is  proposed  to  give  instruction  in  the  fundamental  doctrines,  in 
teaching,  in  Sunday  School  and  in  general  lines  of  Church  activity. 

This  year  Johnston's  Studies  for  Personal  Workers  and  the 
Gospel  of  John  formed  the  basis  of  the  instruction. 

Music.  A  four  years'  piano  course ;  studies  ranging  through 
Duvernoy  and  Czerny  to  Bach's  Well  Tempered  Clavichord  ;  other 
musical  material  drawn  from  classic  composers,  from  Lange,  Gurlitt, 
Burgmuller,  to  Mozart,  Mendelssohn,  Chopin  and  Beethoven. 

The  Piano  Course  is  supplemented  by  a  course  in  harmony, 
theory,  musical  history  and  ear  training.  The  diploma  will  be  made 
conditional  upon  the  intelligent  and  satisfactory  completion  of  this 
theoretic  work. 

The  principles  of  Vocal  Cuiture  are  taught,  special  attention 
being  given  to  correct  method  of  breathing  and  true  voice  placing. 
The  vocalises  of  Abt  and  Panofka  are  used. 

As  soon  as  the  pupil  is  sufficiently  advanced,  instruction  is  given 
in  the  interpretation  of  songs.  This  includes  the  study  of  tone 
color  and  drill  in  distinct  enunciation. 

Besides  the  attention  given  to  correct  singing  on  all  public  occa- 
sions, instruction  in  the  art  of  teaching  vocal  music  is  given  to  the 
Teachers'  Training  Class  and  to  the  College. 

Manuai,  Training  is  a  careful  and  practical  teaching  of  Sloyd 
for  the  fourth,  fifth,  sixth  and  seventh  grades. 

Mechanical  drawing  and  woodworking  are  required  from  the 
eighth  grade,  first  and  second  year  College  Preparatory  and  Normal 
boys.  Every  student  above  these  grades  who  has  not  taken  the 
course  is  required  to  spend  one  year  in  the  Manual  Training  Shop. 

Metal  working  is  given  to  the  upper  classes,  with  reference  to 
practice  in  actual  life.     Many  girls  elect  work  in  the  shop. 

Domestic  Science  is  taught  in  theory  and  practice.  The  girls 
are  given  practical  instruction  in  household  duties  and  cooking. 


18  IvKland  University. 

This  year  sewing  has  been  regularly  taught  through  the  eight 
grades  and  to  the  first  and  second  year  normal  girls. 

A  night  school  is  maintained  for  boys  and  men  for  six  months  in 
the  year. 

The  general  principles  of  Agriculture  are  taught  in  the  Normal 
and  College,  illustrated  by  the  cultivation  of  four  acres  of  laud  and 
by  a  small  dairy . 

Public  Worship.  Regular  Church  Service  is  conducted  on 
Sunday  morning  in  the  College  Chapel. 

Special  emphasis  is  given  to  Bible  Study  under  the  charge  of  the 
Faculty.  This  year  there  were  two  volunteer  classes  in  special 
studies  in  the  Greek  Testament  under  the  charge  of  the  Professors. 

A  course  of  lectures  on  the  Gospel  of  Matthew  was  given  by  the 
President  at  the  morning  chapel . 

The  Principal  and  Preceptress  conduct  evening  chapel  in  their 
respective  halls. 

The  President  is  in  the  habit  each  year  of  reading  with  the 
Senior  College  Class  some  book  bearing  on  the  studies  of  the  term. 

Each  year  a  course  of  study  covering  some  book  of  the  Bible,  or 
some  Biblical  subject,  is  completed.  The  students  maintain  a  volun- 
tary weekly  prayer  meeting,  a  regular  Missionary  Society,  and  con- 
stitute a  recognized  branch  of  the  National  Society  of  Christian  En- 
deavor, with  a  regular  Sunday  evening  service. 

There  is  a  Literary  Society,  the  PhuxomaThEan,  composed  of 
the  students,  which  holds  weekly  meetings  for  mutual  improvement. 
Under  certain  conditions  and  restrictions  a  portion  of  the  essays, 
declamations,  orations  and  debates  are  credited  in  the  Normal  and 
College  work 

The  debates  are  intensive  studies  in  some  important  topic,  in 
sociology  or  governmental  policy,  in  politics  or  history,  and  give 
abundant  opportunity  for  literary  research  work,  as  well  as  drill  in 
logic  and  argument  and  public  address.  Well  prepared  serious  de- 
bate is  a  noble  element  in  a  college  training. 

The  degree  of  Master  of  Arts  may  be  conferred  only  upon  those 
who  hold  a  Bachelor's  degree,   in  the  liberal  arts  and  sciences,  from

this  or  another  approved  college  maintaining  similar  standards  of 
liberal  education,  who  shall  have  completed  a  course  of  liberal  study, 
under  the  direction  of  the  faculty,  sufficient  in  amount  to  constitute 
an  additional  year  of  college  work  of  advanced  character. 

Mr.  J.  S.  Dickerson,  of  the  "Chicago  Standard,"  offers  a  prize 
for  the  best  essay  in  the  Third  Year  Normal,  for  the  next  five  years, 
the  topic  to  be  chosen  by  the  Professor  of  English  in  charge. 

Rev.  Dr.  J.  P.  Philips,  a  former  professor,  offers  for  next  year 
three  prizes — one  in  Ethics,  one  in  English  and  one  for  the  Minis- 
ters' Class. 

The  University  has  a  Library  and  Reading  Room,  which  is  sup- 
plied with  journals  and  periodicals.  Additions  were  made  as  fol- 
lows, a  number  of  books  of  travel,  history,  science,  literature,  re- 
ligion and  several  wall  maps. 

The  University  has  a  fine  Geological  Cabinet,  consisting  of  min- 
erals, ores  and  fossils.  Besides  a  large  collection  of  real  fossils,  it 
has  over  one  hundred  casts  of  the  fauna  of  the  different  ages. 

Only  a  few  type  studies  can  be  taught  thoroughly.  The  present 
clamant  demand  for  manual,  industrial,  commercial  or  practical 
education  will  certainly  be  pondered  by  a  wise  educator  and  pro- 
portionately adopted.  To  make  a  student  efficient  is  a  great  aim;  to 
build  sterling  character  is  a  greater  aim.  The  genuine  teacher, 
whatever  his  subject,  wiil  make  efficient  by  building  character. 
President  Henry  Churchill  King  well  says:  "Do  the  two  only 
really  great  things  one  man  can  do  for  another;  bring  to  your  pupils 
the  contagion  of  a  high  and  noble  life  and  bear  honest,  effective 
testimony  of  your  own  best  vision — that  in  which  and  by  which  yon 
most  live." 

The  method  of  instruction  must  be  varied  according  to  the  na- 
ture of  the  subject  taught.  A  text-book  should  be  used  as  a  guide 
and  as  a  suggestion  of  the  instruction  to  be  imparted  and  the 
method  of  doing  so.  The  student  should  be  held  strictly  accountable 
for  the  text-book  as  to  substance  and  order  of  presentation,  but  the 
instruction  should  go  far  beyond  its  limitations. 


20  Lei<and  University. 

In  advanced  work,  the  branches  must  be  presented  practicall}', 
comparatively,  historically,  with  a  view  of  leading  the  student  to 
the  apprehension  of  the  subject  as  a  whole,  and  in  its  organic  re. 
lations. 

The  highest  practical  scholars  must  be  well  grounded  in  theo- 
retical knowledge.  There  are  enough  studies  of  undisputedly  and 
eminently  liberal  character  to  fill  each  curriculum  of  any  institution 
to  repletion.     Over  crowding  of  studies  tinges  with  vanity. 

This  institution  stands  for  the  conviction,  in  the  words  of  Dean 
Andrew  Fleming  West,  "That  the  true  utility  is  the  long  utility 
which  serves  to  make  a  whole  life  useful  and  that  it  is  the  end  for 
which  men  live  that  make  them  useful  or  useless;  *  *  that  there  are 
College  studies  essential  for  all  who  take  the  College  course,  that  it 
is  the  completion  of  these  which  opens  to  the  student  the  best  all- 
round  view  of  the  knowledge  most  serviceable  for  his  whole  after- 
life, and  that  the  idea  of  discipline  and  duty,  in  studies  as  well  as  in 
conduct,  underlie  any  real  development  of  the  one  true  freedom  of 
the  human  spirit."

Lei^and  University.  21 

This  is  the  work  of  a  High  School  course  of  four  years,  and  of 
the  College  Preparatory  course  at  Iceland  in  particular. 

The  satisfactory  completion  of  the  Eight  grades  of  a  public 
school  course  is  required  to  enter  the  first  year  Normal  or  College 
Preparatory  Course.  Admission  to  higher  classes  will  be  permitted 
only  to  those  who  have  satisfactorily  passed  examinations  in  the 
work  already  completed  by  the  class  they  wish  to  enter. 

The  text-books  given  in  the  course  of  study  of  the  English  Pre- 
paratory and  College  Preparatory  Schools  indicate  the  requirement 
in  each  branch. 

General  Rules. 

It  is  assumed  that  all  who  enter  upon  the  courses  of  study  do  so 
for  the  purpose  of  acquiring  an  education  not  only  of  the  intellect, 
but  also  of  character.  The  laws  of  the  Institution  are  as  few  and 
simple  as  the  proper  regulation  of  a  community  of  young  people  will 
permit.  These  laws  must  be  observed  not  only  in  their  letter,  but 
in  their  spirit.  The  atmosphere  of  the  Institution  is  not  that  of 
arbitrary  restraint,  but  of  reasonable  conformity  to  reasonable  laws. 
Each  student  is  distinctly  placed  upon  his  manhood,  and  if  he 
abuses  his  privilege  in  conduct,  study  or  work,  or  work  hour,  after 
reasonable  caution,  he  must  withdraw  from  the  Institution.  No 
student  will  be  retained  who  does  not  make  progress  in  studies  and 
in  morals. 

No  student  who  is  deficient  in  rhetorical  or  class  room  work  in 
any  term  shall  be  eligible  to  the  office  of  Manager  or  Director  in  any 
student  organization,  or  to  be  a  member  of  any  exhibiting  organiza- 
tion or  any  contesting  athletic  team  during  any  subsequent  term 
until  such  deficiency  is  made  up. 

Only  under  exceptional  circumstances  will  excuses  be  granted  to 
leave  the  Institution  during  term  time.  In  such  cases  the  examina- 
tion in  the  studies  gone  over  by  the  class  during  a  student's  absence 
will  be  specially  searching,  and  a  high  degree  of  attainment  will  be 
required.  The  work  of  the  term  begins  on  the  day  of  opening  and 
continues  uninterruptedly  until  the  last  day  of  the  term. 


22  Ivexand  University. 

Unexcused  absences  from  recitations  count  as  zero  in  making-  up 
the  monthly  averages  ;  excused  absences  have  half  the  effect  in 
lowering  a  student's  standing ;  but  a  student  may,  at  the  option  of  a 
professor,  do  supplementary  work  to  obviate  the  effect  upon  his 
standing  of  excused  absences. 

If  a  student  is  irregular  in  his  attendance  on  the  exercises  of  any 
instructor,  the  instructor  may  impose  extra  work,  and  in  case  the 
absences  exceed  one-sixth  of  the  exercises  with  that  instructor,  the 
student  is  debarred  from  the  regular  examination,  and  must  be  re- 
ported to  the  Faculty. 

Students  are  required  to  take  up  enough  studies  to  keep  them, 
in  the  judgment  of  the  President,  sufficiently  employed,  but  will 
not  be  allowed  to  take  up  more  or  other  than  they  can  study  with 
profit.  In  all  cases  quality  of  work  is  esteemed  of  more  importance 
than  quantity. 

In  all  cases  of  absence  from  an  examination  due  to  whatever 
cause,  the  deficiency  must  be  made  up  as  if  it  were  a  condition.  In 
no  case  is  an  examination  granted  a  student  in  advance  of  the  time 
appointed  for  the  examination  of  the  class. 

A  student,  who  at  the  end  of  a  term  has  conditions  amounting 
to  half  the  term's  work  or  more,  may  not  graduate  with  his  class. 

The  day  students  are  required  to  attend  morning  praj^ers  in  the 
Chapel. 

All  residing  on  the  campus  are  required  to  attend  the  stated  re- 
ligious services. 

Absences  from  regular  duties  make  the  offender  liable  to  disci- 
pline, which  in  ordinary  cases  shall  be  suspension. 

A  student  who  has  not  completed  his  rhetorical  work  in  any 
term  will  not  be  permitted  to  enter  upon  any  of  the  work  of  the 
succeeding  term  until  such  deficiency  is  made  up. 

Any  absence  from  a  class  exercise  incurred  in  the  three  days  be- 
fore vacation  or  before  or  after  a  recess  shall  count  as  equivalent  to 
two  absences  incurred  at  any  other  time. 


Lki.and  University.  23 

The  President  of  the  University  will  be  in  his  office  in  the  Main 
Building  at  stated  hours  to  confer  with  students  who  may  desire  ad- 
vice or  assistance. 

All  students  of  the  University  will  room  and  board  either  on  the 
campus  or  with  their  parents  or  legal  guardians  in  New  Orleans,  and 
in  immediate  vicinity. 

No  student  is  allowed  to  leave  the  campus  at  any  time  without 
permission. 

No  person  will  be  dismissed  from  the  Institution  in  good  stand- 
ing who  leaves  it  while  under  censure.  Nor  will  any  student  be 
graduated  who  has  not  discharged  all  his  pecuniary  obligations  to 
the  Institution. 

No  person  is  admitted  to  the  University  as  a  candidate  for  the 
degree  of  Bachelor  of  Arts  after  the  beginning  of  the  first  term  of 
the  Senior  year. 

A  candidate  coming  from  an  undergraduate  class  in  an  approved 
institution  may  be  allowed,  at  the  discretion  of  the  Faculty,  to  enter 
this  University,  provided  he  presents  satisfactory  certificates  from 
his  former  Institutions. 

No  Certificate  or  statement  as  to  work  done  in  his  department  is 
granted  by  any  professor  or  instructor  to  an  undergraduate. 

Expenses. 

All  instruction,  except  in  Instrumental  Music,  is  free. 

Board,  per  month $12.00 

Incidental  Expenses,  for  day  scholars,  per  month 1.00 

Instrumental  Music,  for  four  weeks,  with  piano  practice 3.00 

Instrumental  Music,  for  four  weeks,  without  piano  practice. . .     2.00 
Board  and  Tuition,  in  Auxiliaries,  per  month 8.00 

All  University  expenses  must  be  paid  in  advance.  Failure  to 
comply  with  this  rule  will  deprive  the  student  of  the  privileges  of 
the  University  until  payment  is  made,  unless  excused  by  special  vote 
of  the  Facultv. 


24  IvKI/And  University. 

No  student  can  take  his  place  in  his  class  until  he  presents  a 
receipt  from  the  office. 

No  deductions  for  incidentals  for  less  than  half  a  month. 

All  students  are  required  to  perform  daily  one  hour   of  some 
form  of  manual  labor  under  the  direction  of  a  teacher  as  a  part  of  ! 
their  payment  for  board . 

Rooms  are  furnished  with  bedstead,  mattress,  pillows,  quilts, 
chairs,  tables,  washstand,  mirror,  bowl  and  pitcher. 

Students  must  provide  themselves  with  sheets,  pillow-cases, 
towels,  napkins,  hair  and  tooth  brushes.  The  wash-list  of  the  arti- 
cles of  plain  regular  wear  received  in  the  school  laundry  will  be  fur- 
nished each  student. 

The  young  women  must  be  provided  with  water-proof  umbrella, 
over-shoes,  work-aprons.  School  dresses  and  underskirts  must  be 
of  dark  material.  An  extra  charge  will  be  made  for  white  dresses, 
skirts  and  waists. 

The  young  men  should  provide  themselves  with  suitable  apparel 
for  the  work  hour,  manual  training,  shop  and  agricultural  work. 

It  is  specially  desired  that  the  dress  of  the  pupils  shall  be  simple 
and  inexpensive.  Parents  and  guardians  are  urged  to  co-operate 
with  the  school  in  this  direction. 

Students  are  charged  for  any  damage  to  their  rooms  or  furniture, 
whether  it  be  done  while  they  are  present  in  the  room  or  absent 
from  it,  whether  it  be  accidental  or  designed. 

All  required  text  books  and  stationery  may  be  bought  at  the 
University  book  store  for  cash  at  the  regular   school-book,  State-  '' 
adopted  price. 

Auxiliary  Schools. 

In  order  to  encourage  the  organization  of  local  schools  for 
primary  and  grammar  grade  work,  the  University  has  made  provision 
for  taking  under  its  charge  auxiliary  schools  in  the  vicinity  of  New 
Orleans  upon  the  following  conditions  : 


Inland  University.  25 

1.  That  a  property  fairly  valued  at  $2,000  shall  be  provided  by 
the  trustees  and  kept  in  repair  by  them,  with  taxes,  insurance  and 
incidental  expenses  paid. 

2.  That  the  tuitions,  to  the  amount  of  at  least  $1.00  per  month 
for  each  pupil,  be  reported  and  paid  to  the  University  before  the  5th 
of  each  school  month. 

3.  That  the  course  of  study  prepared  by  the  Iceland  Faculty  for 
use  in  preparatory  schools,  or  "Leland  Academies,"  be  adopted  by 
the  school  with  such  text-books  as  are  from  time  to  time  prescribed. 

4.  The  teachers  of  the  school  are  to  be  appointed  by  the  Presi- 
dent of  Iceland  University  in  consultation  with  the  trustees  of  the 
school,  and  their  names  will  appear  as  members  of  our  Faculty. 
Their  salaries  are  to  be  paid  by  the  University  on  terms  which  may 
be  agreed  upon  ;  to  be  adjusted  with  reference  to  the  apparent  needs 
and  probable  income  of  the  school. 

5.  Graduates  of  the  school  will  be  received  into  the  regular 
first  year  normal  class  of  the  University  without  examination.  The 
best  scholar  in  each  graduating  class  will  receive  from  the  Univer- 
sity a  prize  of  $1  per  month,  deducted  from  his  first  term  bill,  and 
the  second  best  scholar  will  receive  a  prize  of  50  cents  per  month  in 
the  same  year.  The  principal  must  in  each  case  certify  to  the 
standing  of  the  first  year  normal  pupils. 

Howe  Institute. 

The  first  auxiliary  of  Iyeland  University  was  established  at  New 
Iberia,  L,a.,  in  1890,  for  preparatory  and  grammar  school  work. 

The  sons  of  Peter  Howe,  of  Wenona,  111.,  who,  out  of  filial  re- 
gard for  the  wishes  of  their  revered  father,  placed  that  beautiful 
property  under  the  control  and  management  of  the  President  of  the 
University  for  a  number  of  years,  in  1904  gave  the  property  in  fee 
simple  to  the  school  management  and  added  a  handsome  donation. 

In  1905-6  the  Sixth  District  Baptist  Association  erected  a  beau- 
tiful three-story  brick  building  costing  $8,000. 

At  the  head  of  this  Institution  has  been  placed  Prof.  Jonas 
Henderson,  M.  A.,  who  filled  the  chair  of  History  and  Mathematics 


26  Leland  University. 

in  the  University  for  nine  years.  His  ability  as  a  teacher  is  well  and 
widely  known.  Mrs.  Rebecca  J.  Henderson,  a  normal  graduate  of 
Iceland  University,  is  matron  of  the  boarding  department. 

Leland  Academy, 

In  November,  1892,   the  trustees  of  the  Slater  High  School  at  r 
Donaldsonville,  La.,  made  application  for  acceptance  as  an  auxiliary 
school,  under  the  name  of  Iceland  Academy,  and  it  was  accepted  by 
our  Board.     Mrs.  George  W.  Osibin,  a  normal  graduate  of  Leland 
University,  is  the  efficient  Principal. 

Monroe  Academy. 

Karly  in  1898  the  Industrial  High  School  at  Monroe,  La.,  was 
admitted  to  affiliation  with  us,  having  given  satisfactory  evidence  of 
ability  to  meet  our  prescribed  conditions.  The  Trustees  have  shown 
commendable  enterprise  in  securing  a  valuable  property  for  the 
school,  and  good  work  is  being  done  for  industrial  training.  Large 
classes  are  maintained  in  music  and  sewing.  Prof.  Madison  J. 
FOSTER,  B.  A.,  a  graduate  of  Leland  College,  is  the  Principal. 

Opelousas  High  School. 

In  February,  1902,  the  Opelousas  High  School  formally  made 
application  to  become  auxiliary  to  the  Leland  University.  The 
school  is  a  new  one  and  bids  fair  to  be  useful.  Prof.  Firman  P. 
Jackson,  B.  A.,  a  graduate  of  our  College,  is  the  Principal. 

Central  Louisiana  Academy. 

This  well  known  school  is  under  the  charge  of  James  M. 
FraziER,  B.  A.,  a  graduate  of  our  College  Department.  This 
school  has  a  large  influence.     It  became  auxiliary  in  1902. 

Cheneyville  Academy. 

The  Academy  at  Cheneyville  for  some  time  has  been  sending 
well  prepared  students  to  the  University.  In  1902  it  became  auxili- 
ary according  to  the  prescribed  conditions.  The  school  is  very  well 
equipped.  Prof.  Albert  L.  Yates,  B.  A.,  of  Leland  College,  is 
the  Principal. 


LKI.AND  University.  27 

Bunkie  Academy. 

Bunkie  Academy  has  a  good  location.  It  is  under  the  principal- 
ship  of  Prof.  W.  G.  Thomas,  one  of  our  College  Preparatory  and 
Normal  graduates.  It  has  twice  enlarged,  and  is  still  cramped  for 
room.  It  became  auxiliary  in  1902.  We  have  received  a  number  of 
excellent  young  people,  well  prepared,  from  this  school. 

Houma  Academy. 

The  Fifth  District  Association  established  the  Houma  Academy. 
The  building  is  in  good  condition.  The  Principal,  A.  J.  LagardE, 
B.  A.,  is  doing  very  good  service.  The  school  has  a  good  field.  It 
became  auxiliary  in  1902. 

Israel  Academy,  Belle  Alliance. 

The  Israel  Baptist  Church  of  Belle  Alliance,  Rev.  H.  C.  Cotton, 
Pastor,  has  built  a  good  school  building  and  maintains  a  good  corps 
of  teachers.     Miss  Phii,omene  Joseph,  a  graduate  of  our  Normal 
School,  is  the  Principal.     The  school  bids  fair  to  be  a  very  useful 
factor  in  promoting  education . 

Minden  Academy. 

The  Fourteenth  District  Baptist  Association  has  established  a 
good  school  at  Minden,  Louisiana.  Rev.  P.  P.  Mei^on,  Th.  B.,  is 
the  efficient  Principal.     The  school  became  auxiliary  in  1907. 

Other  Academical  Schools. 

In  addition  to  these  Auxiliary  Academies,  there  are  under  the 
Baptist  State  Convention,  the  District  Association,  and  supported  by 
the  churches  of  these  bodies,  schools  at  Baton  Rouge,  Shreveport, 
Gibsland,  Homer,  Mansfield,  Tallulah,  Ruston,  Franklin,  Rayville, 
with  an  enrollment  of  1,669.  There  are  also  a  great  number  of 
private  schools  held  in  Baptist  meeting  houses,  some  supported  by 
the  State,  but  a  great  many  supported  by  the  churches,  with  a  very 
large  enrollment.

PLAN  AND  PURPOSE  OF  THE  UNIVERSITY. 

Iceland  University  was  incorporated  in  1870,  under  the  provisions 
of  the  Act  of  the  Legislature  of  L/Ouisiana,   which  reads : 

"The  purposes  and  objects  of  this  corporation  are  the  establish- 
ment and  maintenance  of  one  or  more  Institutions  of  learning  for 
the  education,  under  Christian  auspices,  of  young  men  and  women, 
particularly  for  the  training  of  preachers  and  teachers,  and  to  receive 
donations  of  property  for  educational  purposes.  *  *  *  Inasmuch 
as  the  welfare  of  society,  and  not  pecuniary  gain,  is  the  object  of 
this  corporation,  *  *  *  the  Trustees  shall  not  have  power  to  en- 
cumber by  mortgage  the  whole  or  any  part  of  the  property,  nor  to 
use  the  principal  of  any  endowment  funds  for  the  current  expenses 
of  its  work." 

It  is  open  to  all  persons  who  are  fitted  to  enjoy  its  advantages, 
without  distinction  of  race  or  religious  opinions. 

The  University  owes  its  existence  to  the  late  Holbrook  Chamber- 
lain, Esq.,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y.,  who  purchased  the  ground  in  1869, 
erected  the  buildings ;  largely  provided  for  the  expenses  ;  assisted 
its  management,  and  at  his  death  left  the  bulk  of  his  property  as  an 
endowment  fund,  the  interest  of  which  goes  to  the  payment  of 
teachers. 

During  the  summer  of  1899,  a  gift  of  $25,000  for  additional  en- 
dowment was  made  by  Chas.  M.  Pratt,  Esq.,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y. 

LOCATION. 

The  University  is  situated  on  St.  Charles  Avenue,  between 
Audubon  Place  and  Audubon  Street,  nearly  opposite  Audubon  Park. 
No  more  beautiful  or  healthful  location  could  be  found  in  New  Or- 
leans, while  its  retirement  from  the  crowded  part  of  the  city  renders 
it  peculiarly  adapted  to  study. 

The  grounds  comprise  about  ten  acres.  The  row  of  live  oaks 
directly  fronting  the  avenue,  the  palms,  roses  and  shrubbery  here 
and  there  over  the  Campus,  with  the  stately  buildings,  make  it  a 
very  attractive  place. 


10  L,ei,a.nd  University. 

University  Hall  is  of  brick,  100  by  80  feet,  three  stories  above 
the  basement.  Here  are  the  chapel,  recitation  rooms,  library, 
museum,  offices  for  the  president  and  rooms  for  the  professors  and 
male  students,  besides  accommodations  in  the  basement  for  recita- 
tion rooms  for  the  Preparatory  School. 

Chamberlain  Hall  is  also  of  brick,  100  by  50  feet,  three  stories 
above  the  basement,  in  which  are  the  rooms  of  the  president,  the 
preceptress  and  the  professors  and  the  female  students  ;  also  music 
rooms,  dining  room  and  laundry. 

The  Manual  Training  Shop  is  a  frame  building,  fitted  out  with 
fairly  good  equipment  of  hand-tools  and  a  number  of  foot-power 
machines. 

ORGANIZATION. 

The  University  comprises  the  following  Departments : 

1.  The  College  offers  courses  of  study  leading  respectively  to 
the  degrees  in  Arts,  Philosophy  and  Science,  and  is  open  to  both 
sexes. 

2.  The  College  Preparatory  is  designed  to  fit  students  for  Col- 
lege. 

3.  The  Normal  Department  is  designed  to  fit  students  for  teach- 
ing, and  offers  instruction  in  pedagogy  and  practice  teaching. 

4.  The  English  Preparatory  Department  and  Academies  fit 
students  for  the  Normal  School. 

5.  Instrumental  Music  is  thoroughly  taught.  Fifty  lessons  in 
Vocal  Music,  elementary  principles  and  regular  class  practice  are 
given  each  year  to  all  pupils. 

6.  The  Manual  Training  Department  comprises  instruction  in 
Wood-working,  Metal  Work,  Agriculture,  Sewing  and  Domestic 
Science. 

7.  Night  School. 

8.  Woman's  Christian  Workers'  Class 

9.  The  Theological  School  offers  two  courses : 

I.  Full  and  regular  Theological  instruction  for  College  grad- 
uates and  those  of  equivalent  attainments  ;  and, 

II.  A  Minister's  course,  carefully  prepared  for  Pastors. 


DEPARTMENT  OF  INSTRUCTION. 

theological  department. 

I.  The  Theological  Course  is  intended  for  college  graduates  and 
those  of  equivalent  attainment,  and  requires  three  years'  resident 
work ;  in  Old  Testament  and  Related  Subjects ;  in  New  Testament 
and  Related  Subjects ;  in  Biblical  Theology ;  in  Church  History ;  in 
Systematic  Theology  and  Ethics  ;  in  Practical  Theology.  Diplomas 
will  be  given  only  to  those  who  have  satisfactorily  completed  the 
class  room  work  in  recitation  from  a  standard  text  book,  from  the 
lectures,  and  the  requirements  in  examinations,  in  theses  and  in 
sermons. 

II.  The  Ministers'  Course  is  so  adjusted  as  to  take  a  pastor  at 
any  stage  of  his  advancement  and  give  him  an  indispensable  course 
of  study  in  Rhetoric  ;  in  Biblical,  Church  and  General  History  ;  in 
the  Books  of  the  Old  and  New  Testament  in  English  in  the  order  of 
their  relative  importance  ;  in  the  Fundamental  Doctrines ;  in  Sermon 
Preparation  and  in  Pastoral  Duties. 

Pastors  of  some  maturity  of  experience  who  have  never  taken  a 
college  course,  will  find  here  studies  adapted  to  their  needs  equiva- 
lent in  value  to  the  other  preparatory  entrance  requirements. 
Those  who  satisfactorily  complete  this  course  are  admitted  to  the 
regular  Theological  Course. 

III.  A  large  number  of  ministers  have  pursued  a  regular  course, 
giving  all  the  time  that  their  pastoral  labors  would  permit  to  the 
subjects  that  are  regularly  taught,  taking  such  elementary  studies  as 
may  be  necessary  to  grasp  the  regular  Ministers'  Course.  No  time 
limit  is  set  to  the  course ;  neither  is  diploma  or  certificate  offered. 
The  object  of  the  course  is  to  deepen  the  spiritual  life,  to  give  a 
wider  knowledge  of  the  Bible,  to  promote  efficiency,  and  to  develop 
power  in  the  work  of  the  ministry. 

A  number  of  ministers  have  been  enabled  to  enter  the  normal 
and  college  courses  from  the  help  gained  in  the  Ministers'  Classes 
and  a  few  are  preparing  to  enter  the  Theological  Course. 


12  Lei^and  University. 

That  Denomination  is  in  grave  danger  that  does  not  require  of 
its  ministers  a  knowledge  of  the  contents  of  the  Bible,  of  the  system 
of  Christian  truth,  of  the  relations  of  Christian  truth  to  the  science 
and  philosophy  of  our  day,  of  the  history  of  the  Church,  of  its  polity, 
government,  discipline  and  public  worship,  of  the  principles  of 
Christian  ethics  and  of  the  methods  of  religious  education.

TEACHERS'  TRAINING  COURSE.

of  a  thoroughly  organized  secondary  school  and  gives  instruction  by 
critic  teachers  in  the  principles  and  theory  of  the  educative  process 
in  general  and  thirty  periods  of  instruction  in  each  of  the  grammar 
school  branches  in  particular,  with  instruction  in  class  and  school 
management.  Students  are  required  to  give  one  period  a  day  in 
practice  teaching,  under  the  supervision  of  the  Superintendent  of  the 
department,  for  one  year.  The  course  takes  five  years,  the  last  year 
ranking  as  the  Freshman  year  in  College.  The  completion  of  this 
course  with  satisfactory  evidence  of  aptness  to  teach,  and  ability  to 
discipline,  will  be  necessary  to  receive  a  Normal  diploma.

The  English  and  Manual  Training  is  a  course  for  those  un- 
prepared for  the  other  regular  courses  or  for  those  who  do  not  wish 
to  take  the  Teachers'  Training  Course  or  to  go  to  College.  The 
substitute  studies  will  begin  in  the  third  year  of  the  regular  courses. 

The  English  Preparatory  in  the  first  six  grades  accom- 
plishes the  work  laid  out  by  the  public  schools  of  New  Orleans  for 
these  grades,  the  limit  of  education  for  colored  people,  by  the  city. 
These  grades,  with  the  grades  seven  and  eight,  are  a  complete 
grammar  school  course  in  reading,  spelling,  writing,  drawing, 
arithmetic,  geography,  nature  study,  physiology  and  United  States 
history.  Great  stress  is  placed  upon  a  good  command  of  English  in 
speech  and  composition.

The  competent  completion  of  this  course  is  required  to  enter  the 
College  Preparatory  and  Normal  Courses. 

Along  with  these  formal  studies— the  tools  by  the  diligent  use 
of  which  a  rational  education  is  to  be  obtained  through  years  of  well 
directed  labor—  the  proper  ideals  should  be  so  set  forth  that  the  pupil 
may  acquire  moral  insight,  so  that  he  may  be  consciously  and  with 
clear  intent  righteous. 

An  orderly  school,  with  a  properly  adjusted  curriculum,  under 
competent  teachers,  is  a  very  efficient  means  of  moral  training. 
The  school  that  cannot  command  cheerful  obedience  to  reasonable 
methods  of  instruction  and  discipline  is  a  moral  failure.  The  stu- 
dents who  will  not  adjust  themselves  to  such  regulation  should  be 
dismissed  as  incorrigible. 

Into  the  education  of  the  majority  there  enters  as  an  important 
part  their  contribution  to  the  daily  labor  of  the  household,  whether 
rural  or  urban.  Organized  education  must  supply  accurate  hand 
work  that  teaches  patience,  forethought  and  good  judgment  in  pro- 
ductive labor.  The  goal  in  education  is  always  the  acquisition  of 
knowledge,  the  training  to  some  permanent  capacity  for  productive- 
ness or  enjoyment  and  the  development  of  character. 

Language,  literature,  mathematics,  natural  science  and  history, 
drawing,  manual  work  and  music  represent  the  main  varieties  of  in- 
tellectual activity,  the  chief  divisions  of  knowledge. 


16  Lei,and  University. 

In  some  field  each  pupil  should  acquire  a  capacity  for  exact  ob- 
servation, and  again  a  capacity  for  exact  description,  and  again  should 
attain  within  the  limited  range  of  experience  and  observation  the 
power  to  draw  a  justly  limited  inference  from  observed  facts. 

The  Academies  are  required  to  do  as  much  work  as  is  outlined 
for  the  eight  grades  at  the  University  Preparatory  School.  In  all 
cases  the  State-adopted  books  will  be  accepted  as  equivalent  to  the 
books  adopted  above.     The  other  books  greatly  enrich  the  course. 

Successful  work  requires  that  in  addition  to  the  competent 
teacher,  the  student  should  be  provided  with  an  adequate  text-book, 
and  by  questions,  conversations,  lectures,  experiments,  assigned 
readings  and  observations,  reports  on  special  topics,  and  according 
to  the  subject  and  to  the  maturity  of  the  student,  be  encouraged  to 
the  use  of  a  good  reference  library.  The  aim  of  education,  in  so  far 
as  it  is  liberal,  is  to  fit  a  man  to  turn  such  ability  as  he  has  to  any 
work  he  may  be  called  to  do.  It  is  not  so  much  to  feed  facts  as  to 
educate,  to  cultivate  fertility  in  resource  and  to  train  to  use  the 
powers  of  reasoning  in  original  and  unaided  work. 

WOMAN'S  CHRISTIAN  WORKERS'  CI,ASS. 

The  President  of  the  Woman's  Baptist  State  Mission  Society  for 
Louisiana,  accompanied  by  a  number  of  the  members,  made  formal 
application  to  the  University  for  instruction  in  soul  winning  and 
general  church  work  for  women  who  could  read,  who  were  of  suf- 
ficient maturity  of  judgment  and  were  approved  by  their  pastors  as 
trustworthy. 

The  Professors  in  the  Theological  Department  gladly  took  up  the 
work.  The  first  part  of  the  instruction  is  an  exegesis  of  those  pas- 
sages generally  used  for  inquirers,  for  the  two-fold  purpose  of  deep- 
ening the  spiritual  life  of  the  class  and  of  promoting  efficiency.  It 
is  proposed  to  give  instruction  in  the  fundamental  doctrines,  in 
teaching,  in  Sunday  School  and  in  general  lines  of  Church  activity. 

This  year  Trumbull's  "Taking Men  Alive,"  and  the  International 
Sunday  School  Lessons,  and  Adams'  "Primer  of  Teaching,"  formed 
the  basis  of  instruction.

MUSIC.  A  four  years'  piano  course ;  studies  ranging  through 
Duvernoy  and  Czerny  to  Bach's  Well  Tempered  Clavichord ;  other 
musical  material  drawn  from  classic  composers,  from  L/ange,  Gurlilt, 
Burgmuller,  to  Mozart,  Mendelssohn,  Chopin  and  Beethoven.  The 
Piano  Course  is  supplemented  by  a  course  in  harmony,  theory, 
musical  history  and  ear  training.  The  diploma  will  be  made  con- 
ditional upon  the  intelligent  and  satisfactory  completion  of  this 
theoretic  work. 

The  principles  of  Vocal  Culture  are  taught,  special  attention 
being  given  to  correct  method  of  breathing  and  true  voice  placing. 
The  vocalises  of  Abt  and  Panofka  are  used.  As  soon  as  the  pupil  is 
sufficiently  advanced,  instruction  is  given  in  the  interpretation  of 
songs.  This  includes  the  study  of  tone  color  and  drill  and  in  distinct 
enunciation.  Besides  the  attention  given  to  correct  singing  on  all 
public  occasions,  instruction  in  the  art  of  teaching  vocal  music  is 
given  to  the  Teachers'  Training  Class  and  to  the  College. 

Manual  Training  is  a  careful  and  practical  teaching  of  Sloyd 
for  the  fifth,  sixth  and  seventh  grades.  Mechanical  drawing  and 
woodworking  are  required  from  the  eighth  grade,  first,  second  and 
third  year  College  Preparatory  and  Normal  boys.  Every  student 
above  these  grades  who  has  not  taken  the  course  is  required  to 
spend  one  year  in  the  Manual  Training  Shop.  Metal  working  is 
given  to  the  upper  classes,  with  reference  to  practice  in  actual  life. 
Many  girls  elect  work  in  the  shop. 

Domestic  Science  is  taught  in  theory  and  practice.  The  girls 
are  given  practical  instruction  in  household  duties  and  cooking. 
This  year  sewing  has  been  regularly  taught  through  the  eight  grades 
and  to  the  first  and  second  year  Normal  girls. 

A  night  school  is  maintained  for  boys  and  men  for  six  months 
in  the  year. 

The  general  principles  of  Agriculture  are  taught  in  the  Normal 
and  College,  illustrated  by  the  cultivation  of  four  acres  of  land  and 
by  a  small  dairy. 

Public  Worship.  Regular  Church  Service  is  conducted  on 
Sunday  morning  in  the  College  Chapel.

Special  emphasis  is  given  to  Bible  Study  under  the  charge  of  the 
Faculty.  This  year  there  were  two  volunteer  classes  in  special 
studies  in  the  Greek  Testament  under  the  charge  of  the  Professors. 

A  course  of  lectures  on  the  Gospel  of  John  was  given  by  the 
President  at  the  morning  chapel. 

There  is  a  Literary  Society,  the  Phii,omaTHBAN,  composed  of 
the  students,  which  holds  weekly  meetings  for  mutual  improvement. 
Under  certain  conditions  and  restrictions  a  portion  of  the  essays, 
declamations,  orations  and  debates  are  credited  in  the  Normal  and 
College  work.  The  debates  are  intensive  studies  in  some  important 
topic,  in  sociology  or  governmental  policy,  in  politics  or  history,  and 
give  abundant  opportunity  for  literary  research  work,  as  well  as 
drill  in  logic  and  argument  and  public  address.  Well  prepared 
serious  debate  is  a  noble  element  in  a  college  training. 

The  Principal  and  Preceptress  conduct  evening  chapel  in  their 
respective  halls. 

The  President  is  in  the  habit  each  year  of  reading  with  the 
Senior  College  Class  some  book  bearing  on  the  studies  of  the  term. 

Each  year  a  course  of  study  covering  some  book  of  the  Bible,  or 
some  Biblical  subject,  is  completed.  The  students  maintain  a  vol- 
untary weekly  prayer  meeting,  a  regular  Missionary  Society,  and 
constitute  a  recognized  branch  of  the  National  Society  of  Christian 
Endeavor,  with  a  regular  Sunday  evening  service 

The  degree  of  Master  of  Arts  may  be  conferred  only  upon  those 
who  hold  a  Bachelor's  degree,  in  the  liberal  arts  and  sciences,  from 
this  or  another  approved  college  maintaining  similar  standards  of 
liberal  education,  who  shall  have  completed  a  course  of  liberal  study, 
under  the  direction  of  the  faculty,  sufficient  in  amount  to  constitute 
an  additional  year  of  college  work  of  advanced  character. 

Mr.  J.  S.  Dickerson,  of  the  "Chicago  Standard,"  offers  a  prize 
for  the  best  essay  in  the  Third  Year  Normal,  for  the  next  five  years, 
the  topic  to  be  chosen  by  the  Professor  of  English  in  charge. 

The  University  has  a  Library  and  Reading  Room,  which  is  sup- 
plied with   journals  and  periodicals.     Additions  were  made  as  fol-

lows,  a  number  of  books  of  travel,  history,  science,  literature,  re- 
ligion and  several  wall  maps,  papers  and  magazines. 

The  University  has  a  fine  Geological  Cabinet,  consisting  of  min- 
erals, ores  and  fossils.  Besides  a  large  collection  of  real  fossils,  it 
has  over  one  hundred  casts  of  the  fauna  of  the  different  ages. 

Only  a  few  type  studies  can  be  taught  thoroughly.  The  present 
clamant  demand  for  manual,  industrial,  commercial  or  practical  edu- 
cation will  certainly  be  pondered  by  a  wise  educator  and  proportion- 
ately adopted.  To  make  a  student  efficient  is  a  great  aim  ;  to  build 
sterling  character  is  a  greater  aim.  The  genuine  teacher,  whatever 
his  subject,  will  make  efficient  by  building  character.  President 
Henry  Churchill  King  well  says:  "Do  the  two  only  really  great 
things  one  man  can  do  for  another ;  bring  to  your  pupils  the  conta- 
gion of  a  high  and  noble  life  and  bear  honest,  effective  testimony  of 
your  own  best  vision — that  in  which  and  by  which  you  must  live. ' ' 

The  method  of  instruction  must  be  varied  according  to  the  na- 
ture of  the  subject  taught.  A  text-book  should  be  used  as  a  guide 
and  as  a  suggestion  of  the  instruction  to  be  imparted  and  the  method 
of  doing  so.  The  student  should  be  held  strictly  accountable  for  the 
text-book  as  to  substance  and  order  of  presentation,  but  the  instruc- 
tion should  go  far  beyond  its  limitations. 

In  advanced  work,  the  branches  must  be  presented  practically, 
comparatively,  historically,  with  a  view  of  leading  the  student  to 
the  apprehension  of  the  subject  as  a  whole,  and  in  its  organic  rela- 
tions. 

True  education  is  after  all  nothing  but  systematic  study  and 
practive  under  guidance.  The  student  learns  something  of  what  has 
been  done  and  thought  in  the  world,  he  puts  himself  in  some  one 
subject  abreast  of  the  accumulated  wisdom  of  the  past ;  he  develops 
and  increases  his  own  powers,  and  gains  command  of  those  powers. 
He  gets  knowledge,  he  gets  power.  The  powers  of  exposition  and 
application  are  as  important  as  the  power  of  acquisition  and  should 
be  trained  as  carefully. 

The  highest  practical  scholars  must  be  well  grounded  in  theo- 
retical knowledge.     There  are  enough  studies  of  undisputedly  and

eminently  liberal  character  to  fill  each  curriculum  of  any  institution 
to  repletion.     Over  crowding  of  studies  tinges  with  vanity. 

This  institution  stands  for  the  conviction,  in  the  words  of  Dean 
Andrew  Fleming  West,  "That  the  true  utility  is  the  long  utility 
which  serves  to  make  a  whole  life  useful  and  that  it  is  the  end  for 
which  men  live  that  make  men  useful  or  useless ;  *  *  that  there 
are  College  studies  essential  for  all  who  take  the  College  course,  that 
it  is  the  completion  of  these  which  opens  to  the  student  the  best  all- 
round  view  of  the  knowledge  most  serviceable  for  his  whole  after- 
life, and  that  the  idea  of  discipline  and  duty,  in  studies  as  well  as  in 
conduct,  underlie  any  real  development  or  the  one  true  freedom  of 
the  human  spirit." 

Admission  of  Students. 

Examinations  for  entrance  to  the  various  classes  are  held  pre- 
ceding Commencement  and  on  the  day  preceding  the  opening  of  the

This  is  the  work  of  a  High  School  course  of  four  years,  and  of 

the  College  Preparatory  course  at  Iceland  in  particular.  It  is  twenty 
units.  The  unit  comprises  one  recitation  period  daily  throughout 
the  year.  It  is  the  intention  to  keep  the  Grammar  and  High  School 
courses  equivalent  to  the  courses  prescribed  by  the  department  of 
Public  Instruction  of  the  State  of  Louisiana. 

The  satisfactory  completion  of  the  eight  grades  of  a  public 
school  course  is  required  to  enter  the  first  year  Normal  or  College

Preparatory  Course.  Admission  to  higher  classes  will  be  permitted 
only  to  those  who  have  satisfactorily  passed  examinations  in  the 
work  already  completed  by  the  class  they  wish  to  enter. 

General  Rules. 

It  is  assumed  that  all  who  enter  upon  the  courses  of  study  do  so 
for  the  purpose  of  acquiring  an  education  not  only  of  the  intellect, 
but  also  of  character,  The  laws  of  the  Institution  are  as  few  and 
simple  as  the  proper  regulation  of  a  community  of  young  people  will 
permit.  These  laws  must  be  observed  not  only  in  their  letter,  but 
in  their  spirit.  The  atmosphere  of  the  Institution  is  not  that  of 
arbitrary  restraint,  but  of  reasonable  conformity  to  reasonable  laws. 
Each  student  is  distinctly  placed  upon  his  manhood,  and  if  he 
abuses  his  privilege  in  conduct,  study  or  work,  or  work  hour,  after 
reasonable  caution,  he  must  withdraw  from  the  Institution.  No 
student  will  be  retained  who  does  not  make  progress  in  studies  and 
in  morals. 

No  student  who  is  deficient  in  rhetorical  or  class  room  work  in 
any  term  shall  be  eligible  to  the  office  of  Manager  or  Director  in  any 
student  organization,  or  to  be  a  member  of  any  exhibiting  organiza- 
tion or  any  contesting  athletic  team  during  any  subsequent  term 
until  such  deficiency  is  made  up. 

Only  under  exceptional  circumstances  will  excuses  be  granted  to 
leave  the  Institution  during  term  time.  In  such  cases  the  examina- 
tion in  the  studies  gone  over  by  the  class  during  a  student's  absence 
will  be  specially  searching,  and  a  high  degree  of  attainment  will  be 
required.  The  work  of  the  term  begins  on  the  day  of  opening  and 
continues  uninterruptedly  until  the  last  day  of  the  term. 

Unexcused  absences  from  recitations  count  as  zero  in  making  up 
the  monthly  averages;  excused  absences  have  half  the  effect  in 
lowering  a  student's  standing;  but  a  student  may,  at  the  option  of  a 
professor,  do  supplementary  work  to  obviate  the  effect  upon  his 
standing  of  excused  absences. 

If  a  student  is  irregular  in  his  attendance  on  the  exercises  of  any 
instructor,  the  instructor  may  impose  extra  work,   and  in  case  the 


22  Lkland  University. 


absences  exceed  one-sixth  of  the  exercises  with  that  instructor,  the 
student  is  debarred  from  the  regular  examination,  and  must  be  re- 
ported to  the  Faculty.  Students  are  required  to  take  up  enough 
studies  to  keep  them,  in  the  judgment  of  the  President,  sufficiently 
employed,  but  will  not  be  allowed  to  take  up  more  or  other  than  ; 
they  can  study  with  profit.  In  all  cases  quality  of  work  is  esteemed 
of  more  importance  than  quantity. 

In  all  cases  of  absence  from  an  examination  due  to  whatever 
cause,  the  deficiency  must  be  made  up  as  if  it  were  a  condition.  In 
no  case  is  an  examination  granted  a  student  in  advance  of  the  time 
appointed  for  the  examination  of  the  class.  A  student,  who  at  the 
end  of  a  term  has  conditions  amounting  to  half  the  term's  work  or 
more,  may  not  graduate  with  his  class. 

The  day  students  are  required  to  attend  morning  prayers  in  the  I 
Chapel.     All  residing   on   the   campus   are   required   to  attend  the   i 
stated  religious   services.     Absences  from  regular  duties  make  the   j 
offender  liable  to  discipline,  which,  in  ordinary  cases,  shall  be  sus- 
pension. 

A  student  who  has  not  completed  his  rhetorical  work  in  any 
term  will  not  be  permitted  to  enter  upon  any  of  the  work  of  the 
succeeding  term  until  such  deficiency  is  made  up. 

Any  absence  from  a  class  exercise  incurred  in  the  three  days  be- 
fore vacation  or  before  or  after  a  recess  shall  count  as  equivalent  to 
two  absences  incurred  at  any  other  time. 

The  President  of  the  University  will  be  in  his  office  in  the  Main 
Building  at  stated  hours  to  confer  with  students  who  may  desire  ad- 
vice or  assistance. 

All  students  of  the  University  will  room  and  board  either  on  the 
campus  or  with  their  parents  or  legal  guardians  in  New  Orleans,  and 
in  immediate  vicinity.  No  student  is  allowed  to  leave  the  campus  at 
any  time  without  permission. 

No  person  will  be  dismissed  from  the  Institution  in  good  stand- 
ing who  leaves  it  while  under  censure.  Nor  will  any  student  be 
graduated  who  has  not  discharged  all  his  pecuniary  obligations  to 
the  Institution.     No  person  is  admitted  to  the  University  as  a  candi-

date  for  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Arts  after  the  beginning  of  the 
first  term  of  the  Senior  year. 

A  candidate  coming  from  an  undergraduate  class  in  an  approved 
institution  may  be  allowed,  at  the  discretion  of  the  Faculty,  to  enter 
this  University,  provided  he  presents  satisfactory  certificates  from 
his  former  institutions.  No  Certificate  or  statement  as  to  work  done 
in  his  department  is  granted  by  any  professor  or  instructor  to  an 
undergraduate.

All  University  expenses  must  be  paid  in  advance.  Failure  to 
comply  with  this  rule  will  deprive  the  student  of  the  privileges  of 
the  University  until  payment  is  made,  unless  excused  by  special  vote 
of  the  Faculty. 

No  student  can  take  his  place  in  his  class  until  he  presents  a  re- 
ceipt from  the  office.  No  deductions  for  incidentals  for  less  than 
half  a  month,  nor  for  board  for  less  than  two  weeks.  All  students 
are  required,  to  perform  daily  one  hour  of  some  form  of  manual 
labor  under  the  direction  of  a  teacher  as  a  part  of  their  payment  for 
board. 

Rooms  are  furnished  with  bedstead,  mattress,  pillows,  quilts, 
chairs,  tables,  washstand,  mirror,  bowl  and  pitcher.  Students  must 
provide  themselves  with  sheets,  pillow-cases,  towels,  napkins,  hair 
and  tooth  brushes.  The  wash-list  of  the  articles  of  plain  regular 
wear  received  in  the  school  laundry  will  be  furnished  each  student. 

The  young  women  must  be  provided  with  water-proof  umbrella, 
over-shoes,  work  aprons.  The  young  men  should  provide  them- 
selves with  suitable  apparel  for  the  work  hour,  manual  training, 
shop  and  agricultural  work. 


24  LEi/AND  University. 

It  is  specially  desired  that  the  dress  of  the  pupils  shall  be  simple 
and  inexpensive.  Parents  and  guardians  are  urged  to  co-operate 
with  the  school  in  this  direction. 

Students  are  charged  for  any  damage  to  their  rooms  or  furniture, 
whether  it  be  done  while  they  are  present  in  the  room  or  absent 
from  it,  whether  it  be  accidental  or  designed.  Students  must  pro- 
vide themselves  with  the  required  text  books.  All  required  text 
books  and  stationery  may  be  bought  at  the  University  book  store  for 
cash  at  the  regular  school  book,  State-adopted  price. 

Auxiliary  Schools. 

In  order  to  encourage  the  organization  of  local  schools  for 
primary  and  grammar  grade  work,  the  University  has  made  provision 
for  taking  under  its  charge  auxiliary  schools  in  the  vicinity  of  New 
Orleans  upon  the  following  conditions  : 

1.  That  a  property  fairly  valued  at  $2,000  shall  be  provided  by 
the  trustees  and  kept  in  repair  by  them,  with  taxes,  insurance  and 
incidental  expenses  paid 

2.  That  the  tuitions,  to  the  amount  of  at  least  $1.00  per  month 
for  each  pupil,  be  reported  and  paid  to  the  University  before  the  5th 
of  each  school  month. 

3.  That  the  course  of  study  prepared  by  the  Iceland  Faculty  for 
use  in  preparatory  schools,  or  "Iceland  Academies,"  be  adopted  by 
the  school  with  such  text  books  as  are  from  time  to  time  prescribed. 

4.  The  teachers  of  the  school  are  to  be  appointed  by  the  Presi- 
dent of  Iceland  University  in  consultation  with  the  trustees  of  the 
school,  and  their  names  will  appear  as  members  of  our  Faculty. 
Their  salaries  are  to  be  paid  by  the  University  on  terms  which  may 
be  agreed  upon  ;  to  be  adjusted  with  reference  to  the  apparent  needs 
and  probable  income  of  the  school. 

5.  Graduates  of  the  school  will  be  received  into  the  regular  first 
year  normal  class  of  the  University  without  examination.  The  best 
scholar  in  each  graduating  class  will  receive  from  the  University  a 
prize  of  $1.00  per  month,  deducted  from  his  first  term  bill,  and  the 
second  best  scholar  will  receive  a  prize  of  50  cents  per  month  in  the 
same  year.  The  Principal  must  in  each  case  certify  to  the  standing 
of  the  first  year  normal  pupils.

Howe  Institute. 

The  first  auxiliary  of  Iceland  University  was  established  at  New 
Iberia,  La.,  in  1890,  for  preparatory  and  grammar  school  work. 

The  sons  of  Peter  Howe,  of  Wenona,  111.,  who,  out  of  filial  re- 
gard for  the  wishes  of  their  revered  father,  placed  that  beautiful 
property  under  the  control  and  management  of  the  President  of  the 
University  for  a  number  of  years,  in  1904  gave  the  property  in  fee 
simple  to  the  school  management  and  added  a  handsome  donation. 

In  1905-6  the  Sixth  District  Baptist  Association  erected  a  beauti- 
ful three-story  brick  building  costing  $8,000. 

At  the  head  of  this  Institution  has  been  placed  Prof.  Jonas 
Henderson,  M.  A.,  who  filled  the  chair  of  History  and  Mathematics 
in  the  University  for  nine  years.  His  ability  as  a  teacher  is  well  and 
widely  known.  Mrs.  Rebecca  J.  Henderson,  a  normal  graduate  of 
Iceland  University,  is  matron  of  the  boarding  department. 

Leland  Academy. 

In  November,  1892,  the  trustees  of  the  Slater  High  School  at 
Donaldsonville,  La. ,  made  application  for  acceptance  as  an  auxiliary 
school,  under  the  name  of  Leland  Academy,  and  it  was  accepted  by 
our  Board.  Mrs.  Osibin,  a  normal  graduate  of  Leland  University, 
is  the  efficient  Principal. 

Monroe  Academy. 

Early  in  1898  the  Industrial  High  School  at  Monroe,  La.,  was 
admitted  to  affiliation  with  us,  having  given  satisfactory  evidence  of 
ability  to  meet  our  prescribed  conditions.  The  Trustees  have  shown 
commendable  enterprise  in  securing  a  valuable  property  for  the 
school,  and  good  work  Is  being  done  for  industrial  training.  Large 
classes  are  maintained  in  music  and  sewing.  Prof.  Madison  J. 
Foster,  B.  A.,  a  graduate  of  Leland  College,  is  the  Principal. 

Opelousas  High  School. 

In  February,  1902,  the  Opelousas  High  School  formally  made 
application  to  become  auxiliary  to  the  Leland  University.  The  school 
is  a  new  one  and  bids  fair  to  be  useful.  Prof.  Wiijjam  W.  Soi^f/te, 
B.  A.,  a  graduate  of  our  College,  is  the  Principal.

Central  Louisiana  Academy. 

This  well  known  school  was  founded  under  the  charge  of  Prof. 
Warner  R.  Wright.  Two  years  ago  he  resigned.  This  school 
has  a  large  influence.  It  became  auxiliary  for  the  second  time  in 
1902.  Last  year  the  school  added  a  small,  but  excellent,  private 
church  school  to  its  roll. 

Cheneyville  Academy. 

The  Academy  at  Cheneyville  for  some  time  has  been  sending 
well  prepared  students  to  the  University.  In  1902  it  became  auxili- 
ary according  to  the  prescribed  conditions.  The  school  is  very  well 
equipped.  Prof.  Albert  h.  YaTES,  B.  A.,  of  Iceland  College,  is 
the  Principal. 

Bunkie  Academy. 

Bunkie  Academy  has  a  good  location.  It  is  under  the  principal- 
ship  of  Prof.  W.  G.  Thomas,  one  of  our  College  Preparatory  and 
Normal  graduates.  It  has  twice  enlarged,  and  is  still  cramped  for 
room.  It  became  auxiliary  in  1902.  We  have  received  a  number  of 
excellent  young  people,  well  prepared,  from  this  school. 

Houma  Academy. 

The  Fifth  District  Association  established  the  Houma  Academy. 
The  building  is  in  good  condition.  The  Principal,  A.  J.  Lagarde, 
B.  A.,  is  doing  very  good  service.  The  school  has  a  good  field.  It 
became  auxiliary  in  1902. 

Israel  Academy,  Belle  Alliance. 

The  Israel  Baptist  Church  of  Belle  Alliance,  Rev.  H.  C.  Cotton, 
Pastor,  has  built  a  good  school  building  and  maintains  a  good  corps 
of  teachers.  Miss  Phii,omene  Joseph,  a  graduate  of  our  Normal 
School,  is  the  Principal.  The  school  bids  fair  to  be  a  very  useful 
factor  in  promoting  education. 

Minden  Academy. 

The  Fourteenth  District  Baptist  Association  has  established  a 
good  school  at  Minden,  Louisiana.  The  school  became  auxiliary  in 
1907,  under  Rev.  P.  P.  MEU,ONf  Th.  B.  Prof.  C.  F.  Favier,  a 
graduate  of  Iceland,  is  Principal.

PLAN  AND  PURPOSE  OF  THE  UNIVERSITY. 

Iceland  University  was  incorporated  in  1870  under  the  provisions 
of  the  Act  of  the  Legislature  of  Louisiana,  which  reads  : 

"The  purposes  and  objects  of  this  corporation  are  the  establish- 
ment and  maintenance  of  one  or  more  Institutions  of  learning  for 
the  education,  under  Christian  auspices,  of  young  men  and  women, 
particularly  for  the  training  of  preachers  and  teachers,  and  to  receive 
donations  of  property  for  educational  purposes.  *  *  *  Inasmuch 
as  the  welfare  of  society,  and  not  for  pecuniary  gain,  is  the  object  of 
this  corporation,  *  *  *  the  Trustees  shall  not  have  power  to  en- 
cumber by  mortgage  the  whole  or  any  part  of  the  property,  nor  to 
use  the  principal  of  any  endowment  funds  for  the  current  expenses 
of  its  work." 

It  is  open  to  all  persons  who  are  fitted  to  enjoy  its  advantages, 
without  distinction  of  race  or  religious  opinions. 

The  University  owes  its  existence  to  the  late  Holbrook  Chamber- 
lain, Esq.,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y.,  who  purchased  the  ground  in  1869, 
erected  the  buildings ;  largely  provided  for  the  expenses ;  assisted 
its  management,  and  at  his  death  left  the  bulk  of  his  property  as  an 
endowment  fund,  the  interest  of  which  goes  to  the  payment  of 
teachers. 

During  the  summer  of  1899,  a  gift  of  $25,000  for  additional  en- 
dowment was  made  by  Chas.  M.  Pratt,  Esq.,  of  Brooklyn,  N.  Y. 

LOCATION. 

The  University  is  situated  on  St.  Charles  Avenue,  between 
Audubon  Place  and  Audubon  Street,  nearly  opposite  Audubon  Park. 
No  more  beautiful  or  healthful  location  could  be  found  in  New  Or- 
leans, while  its  retirement  from  the  crowded  part  of  the  city  renders 
it  peculiarly  adapted  to  study. 

The  grounds  comprise  about  ten  acres.  The  row  of  live  oaks 
directly  fronting  the  avenue,  the  palms,  roses  and  shrubbery  here 
and  there  over  the  Campus,  with  the  stately  buildings,  make  it  a 
very  attractive  place. 


10  IvEi^and  University. 

University  Hall  is  of  brick,  100  by  80  feet,  three  stories  above 
the  basement.  Here  are  the  chapel,  recitation  rooms,  library, 
museum,  offices  for  the  president  and  rooms  for  the  professors  and 
male  students,  besides  accommodations  in  the  basement  for  recita- 
tion rooms  for  the  Preparatory  School. 

Chamberlain  Hall  is  also  of  brick,  100  by  50  feet,  three  stories 
above  the  basement,  in  which  are  the  rooms  of  the  president,  the 
preceptress  and  the  professors  and  the  female  students  ;  also  music 
rooms,  dining  room  and  laundry. 

The  Manual  Training-  Shop  is  a  frame  building,  fitted  out  with 
fairly  good  equipment  of  hand-tools  and  a  number  of  foot- power 
machines. 

ORGANIZATION. 

The  University  comprises  the  following  Departments : 

1.  The  College  offers  courses  of  study  leading  respectively  to 
the  degrees  in  Arts,  Philosophy  and  Science,  and  is  open  to  both 
sexes. 

2.  The  Normal  Department  is  designed  to  fit  students  for  teach- 
ing, and  offers  instruction  in  pedagogy  and  practice  teaching. 

3.  The  College  Preparatory  is  designed  to  fit  students  for  Col- 
lege. 

4.  The  English  Preparatory  Department  and  Academies  fit 
students  for  the  Normal  School. 

5.  Instrumental  Music  is  thoroughly  taught.  Fifty  lessons  in 
Vocal  Music,  elementary  principles  and  regular  class  practice  are 
given  each  year  to  all  pupils. 

6.  The  Manual  Training  Department  comprises  instruction  in 
Wood-working,  Metal  Work,  Agriculture,  Sewing  and  Domestic 
Science. 

7.  Night  School. 

8.  Woman's  Christian  Workers'  Class. 

9.  The  Theological  School  offers  two  courses : 

I.  Full  and  regular  Theological  instruction  for  College  grad- 
uates and  those  of  equivalent  attainments  ;  and, 

II.  A  Minister's  course,  carefully  prepared  for  Pastors. 


DEPARTMENT  OF  INSTRUCTION. 

THEOLOGICAL  DEPARTMENT. 

I.  The  Theological  Course  is  intended  for  college  graduates  and 
those  of  equivalent  attainment,  and  requires  three  years'  resident 
work;  in  Old  Testament  and  Related  Subjects;  in  New  Testament 
and  Related  Subjects  ;  in  Biblical  Theology  ;  in  Church  History  ;  in 
Systematic  Theology  and  Ethics  ;  in  Practical  Theology.  Diplomas 
will  be  given  only  to  those  who  have  satisfactorily  completed  the 
class  room  work  in  recitation  from  a  standard  text  book,  from  the 
lectures,  and  the  requirements  in  examinations,  in  theses  and  in 
sermons. 

II.  The  Ministers'  Course  is  so  adjusted  as  to  take  a  pastor  at 
any  stage  of  his  advancement  and  give  him  an  indispensable  course 
of  study  in  Rhetoric;  in  Biblical,  Church  and  General  History;  in 
the  Books  of  the  Old  and  New  Testament  in  English  in  the  order  of 
their  relative  importance ;  in  the  Fundamental  Doctrines  ;  in  Sermon 
Preparation  and  in  Pastoral  Duties. 

Pastors  of  some  maturity  of  experience  who  have  never  taken  a 
college  course,  will  find  here  studies  adapted  to  their  needs  equiva- 
lent in  value  to  the  other  preparatory  entrance  requirements. 
Those  who  satisfactorily  complete  this  course  are  admitted  to  the 
regular  Theological  Course. 

III.  A  large  number  of  ministers  have  pursued  a  regular  course, 
giving  all  the  time  that  their  pastoral  labors  would  permit  to  the 
subjects  that  are  regularly  taught,  taking  such  elementary  studies  as 
may  be  necessary  to  grasp  the  regular  Ministers'  Course.  No  time 
limit  is  set  to  the  course  ;  neither  is  diploma  or  certificate  offered. 
The  object  of  the  course  is  to  deepen  the  spiritual  life,  to  give  a 
wider  knowledge  of  the  Bible,  to  promote  efficiency,  and  to  develop 
power  in  the  work  of  the  ministry. 

A  number  of  ministers  have  been  enabled  to  enter  the  normal 
and  college  courses  from  the  help  gained  in  the  Ministers'  Classes 
and  a  few  are  preparing  to  enter  the  Theological  Course.

That  denomination  is  in  grave  danger  that  does  not  require  of 
its  ministers  a  knowledge  of  the  contents  of  the  Bible,  of  the  system 
of  Christian  truth,  of  the  relations  of  Christian  truth  to  the  science 
and  philosophy  of  our  day,  of  the  history  of  the  Church,  of  its  polity, 
government,  discipline  and  public  worship,  of  the  principles  of 
Christian  ethics  and  of  the  methods  of  religious  education.

TEACHERS'  TRAINING  COURSE. 

The  Normal  and  Teachers'  Training  Course  teaches  the  subjects 
of  a  thoroughly  organized  secondary  school  and  gives  instruction  by 
critic  teachers  in  the  principles  and  theory  of  the  educative  process 
in  general  and  thirty  periods  of  instruction  in  each  of  the  grammar 
school  branches  in  particular,  with  instruction  in  class  and  school 
management.  Students  are  required  to  give  one  period  a  day  in 
practice  teaching,  under  the  supervision  of  the  Superintendent  of  the 
department,  for  one  year.  The  course  takes  five  years,  the  last  year 
ranking  as  the  Freshman  year  in  College.     The  completion  of  this

The  English  and  Manual  Training  Course  is  a  course  for 
those  unprepared  for  the  other  regular  courses  or  for  those  who  do 
not  wish  to  take  the  Teachers'  Training  Course  or  to  go  to  College. 
The  substitute  studies  will  begin  in  the  third  year  of  the  regular 
courses. 

The  English  Preparatory  in  the  first  six  grades  accom- 
plishes the  work  laid  out  by  the  public  schools  of  New  Orleans  for 
these  grades,  the  limit  of  education  for  colored  people,  by  the  city. 
These  grades,  with  the  grades  seven  and  eight,  are  a  complete 
grammar  school  course  in  reading,  spelling,  writing,  drawing, 
arithmetic,  geography,  nature  study,  physiology  and  United  States 
history.  Great  stress  is  placed  upon  a  good  command  of  English  in

The  competent  completion  of  this  course  is  required  to  enter  the 
College  Preparatory  and  Normal  Courses. 

Along  with  these  formal  studies — the  tools  by  the  diligent  use 
of  which  a  rational  education  is  to  be  obtained  through  years  of  well 
directed  labor — the  proper  ideals  should  be  so  set  forth  that  the  pupil 
may  acquire  moral  insight,  so  that  he  may  be  consciously  and  with 
clear  intent  righteous. 

An  orderly  school,  with  a  properly  adjusted  curriculum,  under 
competent  teachers,  is  a  very  efficient  means  of  moral  training. 
The  school  that  cannot  command  cheerful  obedience  to  reasonable 
methods  of  instruction  and  discipline  is  a  moral  failure.  The  stu- 
dents who  will  not  adjust  themselves  to  such  regulation  should  be 
dismissed  as  incorrigible. 

Into  the  education  of  the  majority  there  enters  as  an  important 
part  their  contribution  to  the  daily  labor  of  the  household,  whether 
rural  or  urban.  Organized  education  must  supply  accurate  hand 
work  that  teaches  patience,  forethought  and  good  judgment  in  pro- 
ductive labor.  The  goal  in  education  is  always  the  acquisition  of 
knowledge,  the  training  to  some  permanent  capacity  for  productive- 
ness or  enjoyment  and  the  development  of  character. 

Language,  literature,  mathematics,  natural  science  and  history, 
drawing,  manual  work  and  music  represent  the  main  varieties  of  in- 
tellectual activity,  the  chief  divisions  of  knowledge. 


16  Inland  University. 

In  some  field  each  pupil  should  acquire  a  capacity  for  exact  ob- 
servation, and  again  a  capacity  for  exact  description,  and  again  should 
attain  within  the  limited  range  of  experience  and  observation  the 
power  to  draw  a  justly  limited  inference  from  observed  facts. 

The  Academies  are  required  to  do  as  much  work  as  is  outlined 
for  the  eight  grades  at  the  University  Preparatory  School.  In  all 
cases  the  State-adopted  books  will  be  accepted  as  equivalent  to  the 
books  adopted  above.     The  other  books  greatly  enrich  the  course. 

Successful  work  requires  that  in  addition  to  the  competent 
teacher,  the  student  should  be  provided  with  an  adequate  text-book, 
and  by  questions,  conversations,  lectures,  experiments,  assigned 
readings  and  observations,  reports  on  special  topics,  and  according 
to  the  subject  and  to  the  maturity  of  the  student,  be  encouraged  to 
the  use  of  a  good  reference  library.  The  aim  of  education,  in  so  far 
as  it  is  liberal,  is  to  fit  a  man  to  turn  such  ability  as  he  has  to  any 
work  he  may  be  called  to  do.  It  is  not  so  much  to  feed  facts  as  to 
educate,  to  cultivate  fertility  in  resource  and  to  train  to  use  the 
powers  of  reasoning  in  original  and  unaided  work. 

WOMAN'S  CHRISTIAN  WORKERS'  CLASS. 

The  President  of  the  Woman's  Baptist  State  Mission  Society  for 
Louisiana,  accompanied  by  a  number  of  the  members,  made  formal 
application  to  the  University  for  instruction  in  soul  winning  and 
general  church  work  for  women  who  could  read,  who  were  of  suf- 
ficient maturity  of  judgment  and  were  approved  by  their  pastors  as 
trustworthy. 

The  Professors  in  the  Theological  Department  gladly  took  up  the 
work.  The  first  part  of  the  instruction  is  an  exegesis  of  those  pas- 
sages generally  used  for  inquirers,  for  the  two-fold  purpose  of  deep- 
ening the  spiritual  life  of  the  class  and  of  promoting  efficiency.  It 
is  proposed  to  give  instruction  in  the  fundamental  doctrines,  in 
teaching,  in  Sunday  School  and  in  general  lines  of  Church  activity. 
The  class  is  made  up  of  Day  and  Sunday  School  teachers  and  ac- 
credited Association  Church  workers. 

This  year  Johnston's  "Personal  Work  for  Personal  Workers, " 
and  the  International  Sunday  School  Lessons,  and  lectures,  formed 
the  basis  of  instruction.

Music.  A  four  years'  piano  course ;  studies  ranging  through 
Duvernoy  and  Czerny  to  Bach's  Well  Tempered  Clavichord  ;  other 
musical  material  drawn  from  classic  composers,  from  Lange,  Gurlitt, 
Burgmuller,  to  Mozart,  Mendelssohn,  Chopin  and  Beethoven.  The 
Piano  Course  is  supplemented  by  a  course  in  harmony,  theory, 
musical  history  and  ear  training.  The  diploma  will  be  made  con- 
ditional upon  the  intelligent  and  satisfactory  completion  of  this 
theoretic  work. 

The  principles  of  Vocal  Culture  are  taught,  special  attention 
being  given  to  correct  method  of  breathing  and  true  voice  placing. 
The  vocalises  of  Abt  and  Panofka  are  used.  As  soon  as  the  pupil  is 
sufficiently  advanced,  instruction  is  given  in  the  interpretation  of 
songs.  This  includes  the  study  of  tone  color  and  drill  and  in  distinct 
enunciation.  Besides  the  attention  given  to  correct  singing  on  all 
public  occasions,  instruction  in  the  art  of  teaching  vocal  music  is 
given  to  the  Teachers'  Training  Class  and  to  the  College. 

Manual  Training  is  a  careful  and  practical  teaching  of  Sloyd 
for  the  fifth,  sixth  and  seventh  grades.  Mechanical  drawing  and 
woodworking  are  required  from  the  eighth  grade,  first,  second  and 
third  year  College  Preparatory  and  Normal  boys.  Every  student 
above  these  grades  who  has  not  taken  the  course  is  required  to 
spend  one  year  in  the  Manual  Training  Shop.  Elementary  black- 
smithing  is  given  to  the  upper  classes,  with  reference  to  practice  in 
actual  life. 

Domestic  Science  is  taught  in  theory  and  practice.  The  girls 
are  given  practical  instruction  in  household  duties  and  cooking. 

Sewing  is  regularly  taught  through  the  eight  grades  and  to  the 
first  and  second  year  Normal  girls.  The  aim  is  to  make  them  expert 
in  needle  work. 

A  Night  School  is  maintained  for  boys  and  men  for  six 
months  in  the  year. 

The  general  principles  of  Agriculture  are  taught  in  the  Normal 
and  College,  illustrated  by  the  cultivation  of  four  acres  of  land  and 
by  a  small  dairy. 


18  Iceland  University. 

Public  Worship.  Regular  Church  Service  is  conducted  on 
Sunday  morning  in  the  College  Chapel. 

Special  emphasis  is  given  to  Bible  Study  under  the  charge  of  the 
Faculty.  This  year  there  were  two  volunteer  classes  in  special 
studies  in  the  Greek  Testament  under  the  charge  of  the  Professors. 

There  is  a  Literary  Society,  the  Phii,omaThEan,  composed  of 
the  students,  which  holds  weekly  meetings  for  mutual  improvement. 
Under  certain  conditions  and  restrictions  a  portion  of  the  essays, 
declamations,  orations  and  debates  are  credited  in  the  Normal  and 
College  work.  The  debates  are  intensive  studies  in  some  important 
topic,  in  sociology  or  governmental  policy,  in  politics  or  history,  and 
give  abundant  opportunity  for  literary  research  work,  as  well  as 
drill  in  logic  and  argument  and  public  address.  Well  prepared 
serious  debate  is  a  noble  element  in  college  training. 

The  Principal  and  Preceptress  conduct  evening  chapel  in  their 
respective  halls. 

The  President  is  in  the  habit  each  year  of  reading  with  the 
Senior  College  Class  some  book  bearing  on  the  studies  of  the  term. 

Bach  year  a  course  of  study  covering  some  book  of  the  Bible,  or 
some  Biblical  subject,  is  completed.  The  students  maintain  a  vol- 
untary weekly  prayer  meeting,  a  regular  Missionary  Society,  and 
constitute  a  recognized  branch  of  the  National  Society  of  Christian 
Endeavor,  with  a  regular  Sunday  evening  service. 

The  degree  of  Master  of  Arts  may  be  conferred  only  upon  those 
who  hold  a  Bachelor's  degree,  in  the  liberal  arts  and  sciences,  from 
this  or  another  approved  college  maintaining  similar  standards  of 
liberal  education,  who  shall  have  completed  a  course  of  liberal  study, 
under  the  direction  of  the  faculty,  sufficient  in  amount  to  constitute 
an  additional  year  of  college  work  of  advanced  character.  Particu- 
lars may  be  learned  by  addressing  the  President. 

Mr.  J.  S.  Dickerson,  of  the  "Chicago  Standard,"  offers  a  prize 
for  the  best  essay  in  the  Third  Year  Normal,  for  the  next  five  years, 
the  topic  to  be  chosen  by  the  Professor  of  English  in  charge. 

Rev.  Dr.  Joseph  P.  Phillips,  a  former  Professor,  Santa  Rosa, 
California,  offers  for  the  next  five  years  an  annual  prize  to  the  stu-

dent  in  the  Normal  Training  Course  who  shall  show  during  their 
course  the  most  symmetrical  growth  in  character  and  scholarship. 

Mrs.  Virginia  Green  Spaight,  class  '06,  of  New  Orleans,  La., 
offers  for  the  next  five  years  an  annual  prize  for  best  scholarship  in 
the  graduating  class. 

The  University  has  a  Library  and  Reading  Room,  which  is  sup- 
plied with  journals  and  periodicals.  Additions  were  made  as  fol- 
lows :  A  number  of  books  of  travel,  papers,  magazines,  wall  maps; 
a  complete  set  of  the  writings  of  George  Lansing  Raymond,  LL.  D., 
some  fifteen  volumes  ;  The  Harvard  Classics,  fifty  volumes ;  Ency- 
clopaedia Britannica,  last  edition  ;  a  complete  file  of  the  Reports  of 
the  Commissioners  of  Educatian  of  the  United  States  since  1877  ; 
some  forty  volumes  from  Berea  College,  and  some  thirty  other  vol- 
umes on  miscellaneous  subjects  in  Science  and  Religion. 

The  University  has  a  fine  Geological  Cabinet,  consisting  of  min- 
erals, ores  and  fossils.  Besides  a  large  collection  of  real  fossils,  it 
has  over  one  hundred  casts  of  the  fauna  of  the  different  ages. 

Only  a  few  type  studies  can  be  taught  thoroughly.  The  present 
clamant  demand  for  manual,  industrial,  commercial  or  practical  edu- 
cation will  certainly  be  pondered  by  a  wise  educator  and  proportion- 
ately adopted.  To  make  a  student  efficient  is  a  great  aim  :  to  build 
sterling  character  is  a  greater  aim.  The  genuine  teacher,  whatever 
his  subject,  will  make  efficient  by  building  character.  President 
Henry  Churchill  King  well  says:  "Do  the  two  only  really  great 
things  one  man  can  do  for  another  ;  bring  to  your  pupils  the  conta- 
gion of  a  high  and  noble  life  and  bear  honest,  effective  testimony  of 
your  own  best  vision — that  in  which  and  by  which  you  must  live." 

The  method  of  instruction  must  be  varied  according  to  the  na- 
ture of  the  subject  taught.  A  text-book  should  be  used  as  a  guide 
and  as  a  suggestion  of  the  instruction  to  be  imparted  and  the  method 
of  doing  so.  The  student  should  be  held  strictly  accountable  for  the 
text-book  as  to  substance  and  order  of  presentation,  but  the  instruc- 
tion should  go  far  beyond  its  limitations. 

In  advanced  work,  the  branches  must  be  presented  practically, 
comparatively,  historically,  with  a  view  of  leading  the  student  to  the 
apprehension  of  the  subject  as  a  whole,  and  in  its  organic  relations. 


20  Iceland  University. 

True  education  is  after  all  nothing  but  systematic  study  and 
practice  under  guidance.  The  student  learns  something  of  what  has 
been  done  and  thought  in  the  world,  he  puts  himself  in  some  one 
subject  abreast  of  the  accumulated  wisdom  of  the  past;  he  develops 
and  increases  his  own  powers,  and  gains  command  of  those  powers. 
He  gets  knowledge,  he  gets  power.  The  powers  of  exposition  and 
application  are  as  important  as  the  power  of  acquisition  and  should 
be  trained  as  carefully. 

The  highest  practical  scholars  must  be  well  grounded  in  theo- 
retical knowledge.  There  are  enough  studies  of  undisputedly  and 
eminently  liberal  character  to  fill  each  curriculum  of  any  institution 
to  repletion.     Over  crowding  of  studies  tinges  with  vanity. 

This  institution  stands  for  the  conviction,  in  the  words  of  Dean 
Andrew  Fleming  West,  "That  the  true  utility  is  the  long  utility 
which  serves  to  make  a  whole  life  useful  and  that  it  is  the  end  for 
which  men  live  that  make  men  useful  or  useless ;  *  *  that  there 
are  College  studies  essential  for  all  who  take  the  College  course,  that 
it  is  the  completion  of  these  which  opens  to  the  student  the  best  all- 
round  view  of  the  knowledge  most  serviceable  for  his  whole  after- 
life, and  that  the  idea  of  discipline  and  duty,  in  studies  as  well  as  in 
conduct,  underlie  any  real  development  of  the  one  true  freedom  of 
the  human  spirit. ' '

This  is  the  work  of  a  High  School  course  of  four  years,  and  of 
the  College  Preparatory  course  at  Iceland  in  particular.  It  is  twenty 
units.  The  unit  comprises  one  recitation  period  daily  throughout 
the  year.  It  is  the  intention  to  keep  the  Grammar  and  High  School 
courses  equivalent  to  the  courses  prescribed  by  the  department  of 
Public  Instruction  of  the  State  of  Louisiana. 

The  satisfactory  completion  of  the  eight  grades  of  a  public 
school  course  is  required  to  enter  the  first  year  Normal  or  College 
Preparatory  Course.  Admission  to  higher  classes  will  be  permitted 
only  to  those  who  have  satisfactorily  passed  examinations  in  the 
work  already  completed  by  the  class  they  wish  to  enter. 

Graduates  of  the  Iceland  Teachers'  Training  School  will  be  ad- 
mitted to  the  Sophomore  Year  of  a  corresponding  course  in  the  Col- 
lege. Graduates  from  the  Iceland  College  Preparatory  will  be  ad- 
mitted to  a  corresponding  course  in  the  College  upon  a  diploma  of 
the  school.  Graduates  from  the  affiliated  Academies  will  be  ad- 
mitted to  the  Iceland  Normal  School  without  examination. 

All  students  received  upon  certificate  are  regarded  as  in  condi- 
tional standing,  and  will  not  be  matriculated,  unless  their  work 
during  the  first  ten  weeks  of  the  term  shows  that  their  preparation 
has  been  sufficiently  thorough. 

General  Rules. 

It  is  assumed  that  all  who  enter  upon  the  courses  of  study  do  so 
for  the  purpose  of  acquiring  an  education  not  only  of  the  intellect, 
but  also  of  character.  The  laws  of  the  Institution  are  as  few  and 
simple  as  the  proper  regulation  of  a  community  of  young  people  will 
permit.  These  laws  must  be  observed  not  only  in  their  letter,  but 
in  their  spirit.  The  atmosphere  of  the  Institution  is  not  that  of 
arbitrary  restraint,  but  of  reasonable  conformity  to  reasonable  laws. 
Each  student  is  distinctly  placed  upon  his  manhood,  and  if  he 
abuses  his  privilege  in  conduct,  study  or  work,  or  work  hour,  after 
reasonable  caution,    he   must   withdraw    from   the  Institution.     No 


22  IvELAND  University. 

student  will  be  retained  who  does  not  make  progress  in  studies  and 
in  morals. 

No  student  who  is  deficient  in  rhetorical  or  class  room  work  in 
any  term  shall  be  eligible  to  the  office  of  Manager  or  Director  in  any 
student  organization,  or  to  be  a  member  of  any  exhibiting  organiza- 
tion or  any  contesting  athletic  team  during  any  subsequent  term 
until  such  deficiency  is  made  up. 

Only  under  exceptional  circumstances  will  excuses  be  granted  to 
leave  the  Institution  during  term  time.  In  such  cases  the  examina- 
tion in  the  studies  gone  over  by  the  class  during  a  student's  absence 
will  be  specially  searching,  and  a  high  degree  of  attainment  will  be 
required.  The  work  of  the  term  begins  on  the  day  of  opening  and 
continues  uninterruptedly  until  the  last  day  of  the  term. 

Unexcused  absences  from  recitations  count  as  zero  in  making  up 
the  monthly  averages ;  excused  absences  have  half  the  effect  in 
lowering  a  student's  standing ;  but  a  student  may,  at  the  option  of  a 
professor,  do  supplementary  work  to  obviate  the  effect  upon  his 
standing  of  excused  absences. 

If  a  student  is  irregular  in  his  attendance  on  the  exercises  of  any 
instructor,  the  instructor  may  impose  extra  work,  and  in  case  the 
absences  exceed  one-sixth  of  the  exercises  with  that  instructor,  the 
student  is  debarred  from  the  regular  examination,  and  must  be  re- 
ported to  the  Faculty.  Students  are  required  to  take  up  enough 
studies  to  keep  them,  in  the  judgment  of  the  President,  sufficiently 
employed,  but  will  not  be  allowed  to  take  up  more  or  other  than 
they  can  study  with  profit.  In  all  cases  quality  of  work  is  esteemed 
of  more  importance  than  quantity. 

In  all  cases  of  absence  from  an  examination  due  to  whatever 
cause,  the  deficiency  must  be  made  up  as  if  it  were  a  condition.  In 
no  case  is  an  examination  granted  a  student  in  advance  of  the  time 
appointed  for  the  examination  of  the  class.  A  student,  who  at  the 
end  of  a  term  has  conditions  amounting  to  half  the  term's  work  or 
more,  may  not  graduate  with  his  class. 

The  day  students  are  required  to  attend  morning  prayers  in  the 
Chapel.     All    residing   on   the   campus   are  required  to  attend  the 


L,ei,and  University.  23 

stated  religious  services.  Absences  from  regular  duties  make  the 
offender  liable  to  discipline,  which,  in  ordinary  cases,  shall  be  sus- 
pensive. 

A  student  who  has  not  completed  his  rhetorical  work  in  any 
term  will  not  be  permitted  to  enter  upon  any  of  the  work  of  the 
succeeding  term  until  such  deficiency  is  made  up. 

The  President  of  the  University  will  be  in  his  office  in  the  Main 
Building  at  stated  hours  to  confer  with  students  who  may  desire  ad- 
vice or  assistance. 

All  students  of  the  University  will  room  and  board  either  on  the 
campus  or  with  their  parents  or  legal  guardians  in  New  Orleans,  and 
in  immediate  vicinity.  No  student  is  allowed  to  leave  the  campus  at 
any  time  without  permission. 

No  person  will  be  dismissed  from  the  Institution  in  good  stand- 
ing who  leaves  it  while  under  censure.  Nor  will  any  student  be 
graduated  who  has  not  discharged  all  his  pecuniary  obligations  to 
the  Institution.  No  person  is  admitted  to  the  University  as  a  candi- 
date for  the  degree  of  Bachelor  of  Arts  after  the  beginning  of  the 
first  term  of  the  Senior  year. 

A  candidate  coming  from  an  undergraduate  class  in  an  approved 
institution  may  be  allowed,  at  the  discretion  of  the  Faculty,  to  enter 
this  University,  provided  he  presents  satisfactory  certificates  from 
his  former  institutions.  No  certificate  or  statement  as  to  work  done 
in  his  department  is  granted  by  any  professor  or  instructor  to  an 
undergraduate.

24  L,ei,a.nd  University. 

All  University  expenses  must  be  paid  in  advance.  Failure  to 
comply  with  this  rule  will  deprive  the  student  of  the  privileges  of 
the  University  until  payment  is  made,  unless  excused  by  special 
vote  of  the  Faculty. 

No  student  can  take  his  place  in  his  class  until  he  presents  a  re- 
ceipt from  the  office.  No  deductions  for  incidentals  for  less  than 
half  a  month,  nor  for  board  for  less  than  two  weeks.  All  students 
are  required  to  perform  daily  one  hour  of  some  form  of  manual 
labor  under  the  direction  of  a  teacher  as  a  part  of  their  payment  for 
board. 

Rooms  are  furnished  with  bedstead,  mattress,  pillows,  quilts, 
chairs,  tables,  washstand,  bowl  and  pitcher.  Students  must  provide 
themselves  with  sheets,  pillow-cases,  towels,  napkins,  hair  and 
tooth  brushes.  The  wash-list  of  the  articles  of  plain  regular  wear 
received  in  the  school  laundry  will  be  furnished  each  student. 

The  young  women  must  be  provided  with  water-proof,  umbrella, 
over-shoes,  work  aprons.  The  young  men  should  provide  them- 
selves with  suitable  apparel  for  the  work  hour,  manual  training, 
shop  and  agricultural  work. 

It  is  specially  desired  that  the  dress  of  the  pupils  shall  be  simple 
and  inexpensive.  Parents  and  guardians  are  urged  to  co-operate 
with  the  school  in  this  direction. 

Students  are  charged  for  any  damage  to  their  rooms  or  furniture, 
whether  it  be  done  while  they  are  present  in  the  room  or  absent 
from  it,  whether  it  be  accidental  or  designed.  Students  must  pro- 
vide themselves  with  the  required  text  books.  All  required  text 
books  and  stationery  may  be  bought  at  the  University  book  store  for 
cash  at  the  regular  school  book  or  State-adopted  price. 

Auxiliary  Schools. 

In  order  to  encourage  the  organization  of  local  schools  for 
primary  and  grammar  grade  work,  the  University  has  made  provision 
for  taking  under  its  charge  auxiliary  schools  in  the  vicinity  of  New 
Orleans  upon  the  following  conditions : 


^ 


L,ei,and  University.  25 

1.  That  a  property  fairly  valued  at  $2,000  shall  be  provided  by 
the  trustees  and  kept  in  repair  by  them,  with  taxes,  insurance  and 
incidental  expenses  paid. 

2.  That  the  tuitions,  to  the  amount  of  at  least  $1.00  per  month 
for  each  pupil,  be  reported  and  paid  to  the  University  before  the  5th 
of  each  school  month. 

3.  That  the  course  of  study  prepared  by  the  Iceland  Faculty  for 
use  in  preparatory  schools,  or  "Iceland  Academies,"  be  adopted  by 
the  school  with  such  text  books  as  are  from  time  to  time  prescribed. 

4.  The  teachers  of  the  school  are  to  be  appointed  by  the  Presi- 
dent of  Iceland  University  in  consultation  with  the  trustees  of  the 
school,  and  their  names  will  appear  as  members  of  our  Faculty. 
Their  salaries  are  to  be  paid  by  the  University  on  terms  which  may 
be  agreed  upon  ;  to  be  adjusted  with  reference  to  the  apparent  needs 
and  probable  income  of  the  school. 

5.  Graduates  of  the  school  will  be  received  into  the  regular  first 
year  normal  class  of  the  University  without  examination.  The  best 
scholar  in  each  graduating  class  will  receive  from  the  University  a 
prize  of  $1.00  per  month,  deducted  from  his  first  term  bill,  and  the 
second  best  scholar  will  receive  a  prize  of  fifty  cents  per  month  in 
the  same  year.  The  Principal  must  in  each  case  certify  to  the  stand- 
ing of  the  first  year  normal  pupils. 

Howe  Institute. 

The  first  auxiliary  of  Iceland  University  was  established  at  New 
Iberia,  Iya.,  in  1890,  for  preparatory  and  grammar  school  work. 

The  sons  of  Peter  Howe,  of  Wenona,  111.,  who,  out  of  filial  re- 
gard for  the  wishes  of  their  revered  father,  placed  that  beautiful 
property  under  the  control  and  management  of  the  President  of  the 
University  for  a  number  of  years,  in  1904  gave  the  property  in  fee 
simple  to  the  school  management  and  added  a  handsome  donation. 

In  1905-06  the  Sixth  District  Baptist  Association  erected  a  beau- 
tiful three-story  brick  building  costing  $8,000. 

At  the  head  of  this  Institution  has  been  placed  Prof.  Jonas 
Henderson,  M.  A.,  who  filled  the  chair  of  History  and  Mathematics 
in  the  University  for  nine  years.     His  ability  as  a  teacher  is  well  and 


26  Lei, and  University. 

widely  known.     Mrs.  Rebecca  J.  Henderson,  a  normal  graduate  of 
Iceland  University,  is  matron  of  the  boarding  department. 

Leland  Academy. 

In  November,  1892,  the  trustees  of  the  Slater  High  School  at 
Donaldsonville,  I/a.,  made  application  for  acceptance  as  an  auxiliary 
school,  under  the  name  of  Iceland  Academy,  and  it  was  accepted  by 
our  Board.  MiSS  Evelyn  Lowery,  a  normal  graduate,  is  now 
principal. 

Monroe  Academy. 

Early  in  1898  the  Industrial  High  School  at  Monroe,  La.,  was 
admitted  to  affiliation  with  us,  having  given  satisfactory  evidence  of 
ability  to  meet  our  prescribed  conditions.  The  Trustees  have  shown 
commendable  enterprise  in  securing  a  valuable  property  for  the 
school,  and  good  work  is  being  done  for  industrial  training.  Large 
classes  are  maintained  in  music  and  sewing.  Prof.  Madison  J. 
FOSTER,  B.  A.,  a  graduate  of  Leland  College,  is  the  Principal. 

Opelousas  High  School. 

In  February,  1902,  the  Opelousas  High  School  formally  made 
application  to  become  auxiliary  to  the  Leland  University.  The  school 
is  a  new  one  and  bids  fair  to  be  useful.  Prof  Wiiaiam  W.  Soi,ete, 
B.  A.,  a  graduate  of  our  College,  is  the  Principal. 

Central  Louisiana  Academy. 

This  well  known  school  was  founded  under  the  charge  of  Prof. 
Warner  R.  Wright.  Three  years  ago  he  resigned.  This  school 
has  a  large  influence.  It  became  auxiliary  for  the  second  time  in 
1902. 

Cheneyville  Academy. 

The  Academy  at  Cheneyville  for  some  time  has  been  sending 
well  prepared  students  to  the  University.  In  1902  it  became  auxili- 
ary according  to  the  prescribed  conditions.  The  school  is  very  well 
equipped.  Prof.  Charges  A.  Martin,  of  Leland  normal,  is  the 
Principal. 


Leland  University.  27 

Bunkie  Academy. 

Bunkie  Academy  has  a  good  location.  It  is  under  the  principal- 
ship  of  Prof.  W.  G.  Thomas,  one  of  our  College  Preparatory  and 
Normal  graduates.  It  has  twice  enlarged,  and  is  still  cramped  for 
room.  It  became  auxiliary  in  1902.  We  have  received  a  number  of 
excellent  young  people,  well  prepared,  from  this  school. 

Houma  Academy. 

The  Fifth  District  Association  established  the  Houma  Academy. 
The  building  is  in  good  condition.  The  Principal,  A.  J.  IyAGARDE, 
B.  A.,  is  doing  very  good  service,  and  the  school  has  a  good  field.  It 
became  auxiliary  in  1902. 

Israel  Academy,  Belle  Alliance. 

The  Israel  Baptist  Church  of  Belle  Alliance,  Rev.  H.  C.  Cotton, 
Pastor,  has  built  a  good  school  building  and  maintains  a  good  corps 
of  teachers.  Miss  Vioi<a  E.  Wright  is  the  Principal.  The  school 
bids  fair  to  be  a  very  useful  factor  in  promoting  education. 

Minden  Academy. 

The  Fourteenth  District  Baptist  Association  has  established  a 
good  school  at  Minden,  Louisiana.  The  school  became  auxiliary  in 
1907,  under  Rev.  P.  P.  Mei^on,  Th.  B.  Prof.  J.  A.  Moore,  B. 
Th.,  is  the  present  efficient  Principal.
